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.
