Greed has nothing to do with it. Greed implies some kind of less than agreeable human trait. Bankers are greedy, union members are greedy....Those goldfinches are simply feeding in the way that millions of years of evolution has programmed them to do. Nothing more, nothing less.David M.

We have English sparrows that pretty much take over if I have too much around.
