This photo of a male Goldfinch was taken at a small private refuge of gorgeous flowers, lots of honey bees, butterflies, hummingbirds, finches and an occasional bunny.
The American Goldfinch was designated as the Washington State Bird in 1951. This beautiful golden bird is found throughout the state.
Dandelions, sunflowers and especially thistles, are his preferred food - hence the scientific name Carduelis, from the Latin carduus, a thistle. And that’s why the Distelfink is a symbol for the Pennsylvania Dutch, featured in their folk art, embodying good fortune, happiness, and wishes for prosperity. The name "distelfink" originates from the Pennsylvania German word for "thistle finch.”
