Brave little Goldfinch

All summer I tried and tried to catch the Goldfinch on the sunflowers, but they would not even let me get close.Here I sat minding my own business.
And this little one just jumps down on the limb, right above my head.
Looks at me, like "What are you doing there?"
"If I don't look at you, you won't be there!"
Gives me a hateful look (dont' you think?) as if to say "What are you still doing there?", then took off.

He wanted to jump down on the wall and get the seeds I had spread out, but wouldn't with me there. Actually he was closer to me in the tree than he would have been at the seed.
