Description
Soak up some of the most cheerful colours of summer.
Whether it’s bouncing around in flight, singing its lively song or climbing seed-bearing plants, the American Goldfinch (Spinus tristis) can’t help but draw attention to itself as it brings a brilliant flash of colour to any setting. On this coin’s reverse, it’s easy to see why this handsome finch is a favourite of many birdwatchers, its yellow-and-black plumage contrasting beautifully with the cheerful purple hues of aster flowers.
Enjoy this close-up of one of Canada’s most colourful birds.
