Hi all. It’s normal for my backyard on S Dora in the Oak Knoll area to host up to half a dozen American goldfinches.
On Monday I took a walk southward and there were trees FULL of them, conversing like crazy. It was amazingly loud.
And for the past several days I routinely have three dozen or more all day, on the feeder, on the ground, at the water bowl. The males outnumber the females. I have never seen anything like this. It’s delightful but weird. Is it possibly due to the massive prescribed burn up on Cleland Mtn behind me?
