Description
An American Goldfinch is perched on a coneflower in my summer garden, soaking up the morning sunshine, as it feasts on a breakfast of echinacea (Coneflower) seeds. One of the things I love about coneflowers is that it is first host to the bees and butterflies gathering nectar, then after the bloom fades, it becomes host to the beautiful goldfinch birds! Nothing goes to waste in the garden. The American Goldfinch is the state bird of New Jersey, Iowa, and Washington.
Digital textures and light enhancements were added to my original photo, then converted to a monochrome, black and white image. The color, painterly version of this image is also available in my Birds Collection.
