From my deck above the zinnias, I could see the youngster goldfinches eating at the flowers. Getting a focus on them was difficult but I accidentally got this one. The camera acted like it could not find a focus most of the time and yet a couple of them did get photographed.
Another shot shows a timid pose of the goldfinch. I do have some blurry shots of one of them tearing away at a flower to get the seed. The mature seed is actually attached to the dried up petal.
I will try a another day with my wife's camera. She will have to train me in how to use it. Various lenses would help me if I get the right one.

I do see him! He is well hidden in the first picture.
I see the goldfinches. I remember how they loved black-eyed Susans too at one of our homes. I've had the same sad camera for years...I doubt if I could be taught to use a new one!
