🦉 The European goldfinch or simply the goldfinch (Carduelis carduelis)
- Carduelis carduus (Latin) thistle
These colorful birds are winter residents and can be spotted year-round if you're looking. The best time is mid-July, when their favorite plant, the thistle, is ripening. At this time, they fly in flocks to feast on the seeds.
I also noticed that at the end of February, they begin migrating en masse. At that time, I constantly see large numbers of them in the trees near my yard, and I live near a forest.
