The only thing I don't like about this thread is that my eyes are turning green. So many birds ... and most of them aren't in my yard.... RtS, there are lots of us over here who would love to see any one of the birds you listed. Chris, yes, please, pictures. Raptor, you lucky dog! I have read about European Goldfinches reaching the U.S. but it's a big deal when it happens.
