Sisters are posting about yellow birds. The American Golden Finch is bright yellow with dark black accents in summer, but in the middle of winter it is a dull brown with yellow shading. I wanted to find a pic with the different phases but I have to go to work now. I found this great site, where you click and it will show the coloring of this bird from January through all 12 months. Go look. In December they are dull and in July they are bright yellow with black accents.
