Finches

We have seriously ugly wild plants in our front garden.

When they first come in they are fine, with pretty yellow flowers. Then they keep growing...and growing...and growing and the flowers dry up. Just when I decide I need to yank them out, the finches (I think they're finches) come back to eat the seeds. And then I remember why I let these plants come back every year.

Aren't they beautiful?

Hi Liz,
Found your blog on FOTR site. I'm a birder from Indiana, and you're correct. Those are American Goldfinches!
