European Goldfinch – Australia


Identification: The Eurasian Goldfinch has a distinctive red face, black and white wings, and a yellow patch on its wings. The rest of its body is primarily brown and buff-colored. The male and female have similar appearances.

Size/Weight: The Eurasian Goldfinch measures around 4.7 to 5.1 inches (12 to 13 cm) in length and weighs approximately 0.4 to 0.6 ounces (11 to 17 grams).

Lifespan: In the wild, Eurasian Goldfinches can live for about 2 to 3 years, although some individuals have been known to live longer in captivity.

Breeding: Eurasian Goldfinches typically breed during the spring and summer months. They build cup-shaped nests made of grass, moss, and other plant materials. The female lays 4 to 6 eggs, which are incubated by both parents for about 11 to 14 days. The chicks fledge after approximately 14 to 16 days.

Diet and Feeding: Eurasian Goldfinches primarily feed on seeds, especially those from thistle and other composite plants. They also consume insects and occasionally eat fruits and nectar. Please note that if you are specifically looking for information about a goldfinch species native to Australia, there are several native species such as the Australian Goldfinch (Neochmia temporalis) and the European Goldfinch (Carduelis carduelis) is not one of them.
