The American Goldfinch is bright yellow showing a black crown, wings, and tail. Its rump and wingbars have been left white. The female, as is non-breeding the male, are olive-brown on top; and buff-gray on the bottom; the wings and tail are black and the wingbars are white. All of these birds, at any season, show a trace of yellow.
