No black wire in ceiling box?

[Tmbbmom]

I took down my foyer ceiling fixture to clean and paint it. It has two gold wires and a ground wire. When I pulled it down, one of the gold wires must have come loose. The ground wire was attached to the ground wire in the box, one gold wire was attached to the red wire in the box and the 2nd gold wire was unattached. The ceiling box has a ground wire, a red wire, and a bundle of 3 white wires attached and capped. I don't see a black wire. Where do I attach the second gold wire?

Can you show a pic.

The red is probably the switched hot (in place of a black) and the whites the neutral, in which case the detached wire from the fixture goes to the neutral wirenut. As per Westward10 we should look at a picture before stating that for definite.

This is an assumption that the red would have to be the hot and the other gold wire goes in the wire nut with the white wires
