This Pair of American Goldfinches carving was hand-crafted from solid Basswood. The plumage of the male American Goldfinch is bright yellow with a black cap. The wings are also black with white bars. His coloration is completed with a yellow shoulder patch, white upper-tail and under-tail coverts, and a black-and-white tail. The female coloring is olive above and duller overall. The black cap and yellow shoulder patch are absent on the female. The juvenal plumage, present until November, has cinnamon-buff wing markings and rump. The song is a lively series of trills, twitters and swee notes.
