The story of the goldfinches is great. How exciting! My parents have had echinacea growing in their front yard that attracted beautiful goldfinches and purple finches, too. They like thistle, too.Marthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03411789923271959623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2803169071579899054.post-76421471328573116422011-06-27T13:40:35.374-07:002011-06-27T13:40:35.374-07:00We have a sock, but keeping it full can be a chall...We have a sock, but keeping it full can be a challenge because we are some of the only people in the neighborhood who feed birds, so it can get pricey to fill that stuff up!

They LOVE nyger (thistle) seed, and especially seem to like the finch socks - the white mesh bags. Sometimes they are covering it!!! I LOVE them, too!!Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03409612765593882013noreply@blogger.com
