Evening Grosbeaks Return in Full Force

It’s like watching a version of Alfred Hitchcock’s ‘The Birds’, when Evening Grosbeaks return to our feeders.

These are a couple of males awaiting their turn at the overcrowded feeding stations filled with sunflower seeds.

Goldfinches are Back!

After a heavy rain complete with thunder and lightning…

I noticed the goldfinches are back!

The red heads have been here awhile.  Does anyone know if this is a house finch or a purple finch?

Thanks for stopping by.  Work has kept me from the garden.  Another weekend selling my art glass has just passed with another on the way…..
