The Marauding Hordes
One of the more prolific flocks of birds attacking my feeders are the goldfinches. Since the begining of February I have had between 50 and 75 of these guys (and gals) at the sunflower and thistle seeds every morning. They are the sole posessors of the thistle feeder, however. They have to share the sunflowers with everybody else.
I have turned into an avid bird watcher. Kind of weird I reckon considering some years ago I only like to shoot birds such as quail and the upland game birds and an occasional dove for the pork and beans on a camp stove
