American Goldfinch

In late August, Central Park can have lots of migrants one day and be quiet the next.  On Saturday, it was fairly quiet.  A highlight was a common bird for the park, an American Goldfinch.  Generally we see them at the bird feeders in the winter, so it was nice to see this bird enjoying seeds in the Wildflower Meadow in the North Woods.
