About These Birds
European Goldfinch
The European goldfinch is a strikingly beautiful finch whose tinkling song and colorful plumage have made it popular in art and as a caged bird for centuries. It appears frequently in Renaissance paintings as a symbol of the Passion of Christ. Flocks of goldfinches are charmingly called a charm.
American Goldfinch
The American Goldfinch is a bright yellow finch weighing about 13 g with a 14 cm wingspan, widespread across North America in open fields, roadsides, and gardens. Males display vivid lemon-yellow plumage in summer, while both sexes feed almost entirely on seeds, particularly from composites like thistles.
