This is kind of why I have sown the #Teasel: #Goldfinches. Was trimming the pollard willows and then I heard a less familiar sound. Yay, they are here! Funny how you miss many birds because they are not the usual suspects near the house (and I apparently do not get out enough...)
The goldfinches are shy enough to not get close to them. Also hard because the only way to get close is across the open field, sticking out like a sore thumb.

It may just be the only day of snow so I might as well take some pictures.

Not sure how the teasel does things normally, but this struck me as odd. Do they drop and try to take root there? A seed would stand a better chance of reaching the soil than a partially sprouted seed? Well, I guess they know best :)
