Title: Few birds from the feeder
Post by: Niloc on November 01, 2009, 11:09:45 AM

As I live in Toronto I am always looking for new birds at the feeder, today for the first time 4 wonderful House Finches showed up 2 male 2 female...along with the usual 30 or so male and female House Sparrows...also 6 Blue Jays, Grackles and crows although the crows have not come close enough for pics...here are a few pics - cheers

I think the House Finch is an underrated bird - very attractive, love the colouring on the male.
