This pair of Lesser Goldfinches came to our birdbath around
noon yesterday. The male seems to
display surprise and shock at the slippery semi-solid surface, while the female
appears to be holding back waiting to see how it plays out. The water had
already been thawed out several times as my wife Jeanette packs out hot water
many times a day trying to make it possible for the birds to get a drink of
water. Her sister referred to her yesterday
as “Saint Francis of the Bird Bath”, and as a matter of fact Jeanette’s middle
name is “Frances”.
