The Feeder Feed
An interesting and instructive sight at the feeder this morning.
You can see here the difference between House Finch (left) and Purple finch (right).
Mr. & Mrs. Purple Finch.
... eating…

Wonderful! Thank you, I love the purple finch in the wild.
Comment by GalacticCatholic — 8 December 2009 @ 11:09 amVery instructive pictures. I have seen both birds but never side by side for comparison. Purple Finch makes House Finch look like a purple pretender. Is that the correct shade of purple for Advent?
Lovely pictures, Thank you Fr. Z.

Comment by Suburbanbanshee — 8 December 2009 @ 11:54 amWell, hopefully the Rose Finches will visit next Sunday.
Comment by Random Friar — 8 December 2009 @ 12:53 pmI imagine the birdies sense when there’s going to be a blizzard, so they’re ‘stocking up’ at the feeders!
Nice pics as always, Father Z!
Comment by irishgirl — 8 December 2009 @ 2:55 pmThe first picture just begs for a caption. I think the married ones would know what I mean.
