In the fall of a bird gather in packs, going to the South therefore in advance learn where they usually do parking during the movements. As a rule, places do not change from year to year.
2. Choose the suitable place for catching, a so-called ""ptitselovny"" tochok. Look for sites with slopes and ravines, but where there is no large number of trees. It is better if it is the place located near kitchen gardens. Pay attention to plants which are located on the chosen site: goldfinches prefer to be fed with a burdock and a camel prickle. In such places the goldfinches almost for certain will stop for rest during a way.
3. Choose for a point the flat platform, near a reservoir. As a bait use favourite food of goldfinches or semolina birds. A goldfinch – a talkative bird therefore decoy goldfinches quickly will begin to talk, drawing attention of the relatives.
4. Use usual glue if you hunt in cloudy day. Smear with it branches of bushes: the goldfinches attracted with appeals of a semolina bird will go down and will sit down on these branches, without having noticed anything unusual. In a moment you will be able already to choose to yourself a bird for the house. But take care of that glue did not do harm to birds, and they could be released easily back.
