This is close up video of the goldfinches in our yard.  They're on a feeder made especially for them because birds have to hang upside down to eat from it.  So far, they're the only birds we've seen that can do that.  The male is the more brightly colored bird with the black head.  The female is a duller yellow.  You can see a video of a house finch trying unsuccessfully to eat from it HERE.
