Goldfinch

In the early morning the sun lit up the creek, but alas it did not last.  A blue jay was hungry enough to wrestle with the suet.  But then Woody (the pileated) Woodpecker arrived.  Meanwhile a white breasted nuthatch was busy on the seed feeder.  A male goldfinch looked like he carried his own sun spotlight.  The female pileated showed up when the male finished eating.  A mockingbird attacked the suet next.  And a female red bellied woodpecker ate seeds.  

Then a female bluebird came for seeds.  I put mealworms out and a pine warbler popped up.  A brown headed nuthatch also wanted deeds.  White throats were still earth-bound.  I scrubbed the little table that was coated with algae.  The day grew gray and windy and the temperature dropped.
