Best House Finch photo I've seen outside of a field guide. In fact, this photo should be in a field guide.

What a nice work of ART. I love everything about this...I miss seeing these little guys...I don't have them here in the forest? Have you ever seen a yellow house finch? They are almost as pretty as this picture!!! angie, from "bear country", FL (Ya know, I was born and raised in FL and never knew till I moved to the "wood"s we had Black Bear...and believe me when I say they are BIGGGGG!)

This used to be a strictly western bird, but was introduced to the east coast in the last century and has spread widely. I have them nesting on the columns supporting my porch in eastern North Carolina. Nice song too. I don't mind the invasion.
