Amercian Goldfinch

Carduelis tristis

Description:

Winter plumage
Female in winter is a drab brown and dark wings with pale white wing bars. The bill is conical shaped

Habitat:

This was spotted near a small creek and marsh.

Notes:

I will try to remember to remove the hunter's mission. The computer I sometimes use, choses the wrong ones and I can't remove it. So I have to wait til I get home to remove it.

these must be migratory ,because, I have never ever seen Gold Finches any other time of the year.
