The Gathering -

in their Winter feathers -

at least a dozen in this flock of Gold Finches -
the Summer feathers of the males are a bright yellow -
with black wings, tail and head -
when spotted on a Dandelion -
it blends so well with the yellow, that if the Gold Finch moves -
then you can spot it -

some House Finches -
and Juncos -
a Blue Jay and Northern Cardinal -

but this was a Gold Finch Meeting -

a busy morning -
weather is getting colder -
saw several constantly fluffing their feathers to trap in heat -
