American Goldfinch Losing It’s Balance

4 baby finches!

Mr. and Mrs. Finch have four baby finches. Sadly, neither of them wants to care for them, the babies are so thin! Mrs. Finch seems to have abandoned them and Mr. Finch refuses to feed them. I hope they are ok!

RARE Yellow House Finch!

I was looking at the finches when I noticed this rare yellow House Finch! This is the second time that I have seen a bird like this.

House Finch Courtship Feeding

The finches were both feeding when Mr. Finch pushed Mrs. Finch to the edge of the platform feeder, Mrs. Finch flapped her wings like a baby bird and opened her beak, Mr. Finch fed her, he also fed her in the neighbor’s cypress tree.
