Description: | The Goldfinch is common throughout Europe and feeds mainly on small seeds. It often lives in areas such as orchards where there is lots of open space between trees where tall weeds like teasel and thistles - it's preferred food - can grow. It is one of the most agile of all the finches, using it's feet to maintain its balance as it pulls seeds out of thistle heads, and nipping off the unwanted husks with its beak.
