The only birds around Bird Alley so far this morning are female Goldfinch and luckily for me they are just right for the mellow yellow category. I had thought of going out in search for a ***yellow Hawkweed blossom which I had seen the other day but there was a heavy frost overnight and the ground foliage is all covered with white. Perhaps I will put "look for yellow blossoms on my 'to do' list for the day.
e:note*** After the frost cleared I found a late dandelion in bloom to photograph. How lovely it was to find such a spring thing in late November!
I like this Goldfinch capture above as the bird to the left forefront is almost escaping from the picture frame. I love the surprises that sometimes appear in photos taken of birds, their movement in a frame is often unpredictable as to what results.
Happy Monday to all. To view a wonderful variety of yellow-themed photos from other bloggers around the world, just click on the link below

I'm surprised to see the dandelion this late, but I guess that is why they are such survivors...very hardy. The late warm weather perked up several plants that should be sleeping already. Love the Goldfinches...another hardy survivor :-) They seem so persisitent and intent on their eating when they are at the feeders. I love the odd movements that get captured when they suddenly fly, too :-) Some good yellow choices considering what little is out there now!
ReplyDeleteI do love goldfinches. We had quite a few of them in Illinois but none here in Hawaii. We sure do have dandelions though.
