Goldfinches
A female goldfinch comes multiple times a day to eat from my seed block. My finches don’t seem to like the thistle sock that much, mainly sunflower seeds.

So many finches lately!

Why aren’t goldfinches coming?
I’ve hung a sack of nyger/thistle since winter and only one goldfinch has come during the winter. My area has a lot of mature shade trees; maybe that’s why. The sack is also moldy. Any suggestions for attracting them?
