Geocache Description:


The state of New Jersey chose the American Goldfinch (Carduelis tristis), also known as the eastern goldfinch, as the state bird in 1935. The tiny yellow canary bird with a short, cone-shaped bill and a short, forked tail helps control ragweed growth in the Garden State of New Jersey by munching the weed’s seeds.
