[Dthomp2669@xxxxxxx]

Good Afternoon,
 
While having my lunch today in Charlotte Park, West Nashville, Davidson  
County, a pair of goldfinches perched on my thistle feeder to provide my  
lunchtime entertainment.  They had dined for a few minutes when a second  male 
came to 
the feeder.  The first male immediately toppled him from his  perch.  He 
persistently returned.  The female left followed by the  first male leaving the 
second male alone and feeding greedily for a little while  before he, too, took 
off in the same direction toward the Cumberland  River.  Both males were 
GORGEOUS in their brilliant yellow "suits."
