One of our new house finches, doing his best impression of a meerkat.

My brother noted that finches ground feed like cockatiels. đ For sure, I've never seen finches feed this way before, let alone a whole flock that was gorging themselves and ignoring a bird feeder that was just 10' away. By comparison the juncos, who are natural ground feeders, were doing their usual casual browsing and looked a lot less clumsy.

I've been referring to the neighbor's hens as âthe girlsâ; maybe that would be more appropriate for the small flock of young house finches that have descended in my back yard?
(Yeah, this is my lawn. California. Brown is the New Green and all that.)

It's just a normal late spring day at the feeders. The recent fledglings, like this #housefinch and #downywoodpecker, are caring for themselves. I haven't seen the #redheadedwoodpecker or #pileatedwoodpecker fledglings yet, so the parents are taking away lots of suet. #birds #birding #birdsofmastodon #nature #photography

Whether a bird is red, orange, or yellow is the product of the ratio of the different pigments in feathers. These pigments are the bi-products of enzymes. Bird get their colorations specifically through yellow dietary carotenoids, which usually consists of vegetable matter. Birds will then convert these yellow dietary pigments to red. This is how they get their colorful red feathers
#HouseFinch BRIGHT red house finches, why so RED?

It was 80F last week and it was 36F this morning. That's April, I guess. Because of the cold, the birds are quite hungry. #pileatedwoodpecker #housefinch #bluebird #yellowthroatedwarbler #birds #birding #nature #photography

The âSquirrel Proof Fird Beeder.â Not one of my better ideas.
Oh, the squirrels absolutely hated it: they'd leap, try to grab on, go flying, and land with an awkward crunch on the concrete. Unfortunately the birds hated it, too: the rubber baby buggy bumpers on the feed openings made it really hard for the birds to yank the seed out, and after awhile they'd give up. I tried removing the rubber baby buggy bumpers... and then the seed simply drained right out the opening.

House Finch at the Watering Hole by Debra Martz
Beautiful male House Finch having a drink of water. With added dabs of color around the ground and on the rocks and finished with a painterly effect. The Finch is partially masked in the three different abstract layers I applied in order to keep it's true colors and features.

This puffed up house finch hung out on my windowsill this morning to get out of the rain (but stay close to the window bird feeder).
