  4. I believe it's a house finch. I look at some pretty great birding blogs - that's the only way I would have learned that!

  6. The lighting is lovely in this shot.
    Kathy is right, that is a house finch. We have some nesting in the backyard.

  17. The other bird in the photo blends in with the plant and is almost invisible next to that redhead. Great capture, Sharon!
