Goldfinches come and go...

Temperatures seem to affect feeding
This is purely circumstantial evidence on my part, but the backyard appearances of goldfinches, which are numerous, seems to ebb and flow with weather changes.  Mild weather, and the goldfinch sightings drop.  Who knows where they go?   Bitter, cold weather and the goldfinches plunder the feeders in the backyard.  I interpret this as innate, inborn, intelligence and a God-given facet of their survival in the harsh Canadian winter months.  They create hope, optimism and colour to any otherwise harsh climate.   Bless them.
