House Finches

are one of those birds that are always here, and we kind of take them for granted. I do too. But they are interesting to watch too! The color intensity and variety of the males is changing with their diet, and some of them can appear so vibrant that people are thrown off and think they saw a Purple Finch. Here is a local resident. Same bird in both photos (I think). Different days and light.
