American Goldfinch (Spinus tristis)

American Goldfinch (Spinus tristis)
These finches were spotted drinking out of a puddle somewhere near a cotton field in Capron, Virginia on Friday, August 20th at about 11:00AM.  The female is on the left, and two males are on the right.  You can read more about these finches here, and you can read more about sexual dimorphism here.
