Lesser Goldfinch

Today, while the girls were engaged in a futile but desperate attempt to dam up North Turkey Creek with rocks, I wandered around and shot these photos of a flock of Lesser Goldfinch (Carduelis psaltria). These shots are not very good, of course, but the bird is very small and equally shy and this today was the first time I'd ever seen it.
