Yesterday, I mentioned all the reproductive activities taking place around the feeder (unless, of course, some of the birds are on the avian equivalent of a birth control pill or using little tiny condoms). I think we've been seeing some of the results of that activity as well. I've noticed in the last several days several birds with downy feathers still poufing out from their coat... they sure look like fledglings to me -- like these goldfinches.
