The Goldfinches are Back

I've hardly seen a goldfinch all summer in the garden but as soon as I put up a feeder they've returned.  They must have a good network to let them know when the sunflower hearts are being served up again.

An unremarkable day, save for the cat who presented us with not one, but two dead mice in quick succession this morning.  She's obviously sharpened up her act after the local mouse tribe had raided the bird feed a few weeks ago.
