Photography of Birds – Set # 22 | H.J. Ruiz

This handsome male House Finch, is actually sporting the red, adult plumage. Several families of these species nest in my backyard. They are proliferous and peaceful birds.

Brown-headed Cowbird

This is a male Brown-headed Cowbird. One of many that visit my feeders, through the season, they do leave when is time for migration, apparently they do not like the cold weather very much.

A pair of house finches were the first to arrive at my new feeders. They’re so pretty, and I love hearing their song.

  I like them, they stay all year round and they are very family-oriented. Every year I enjoy, when I see the father feeding the little imps. Thank you, Linda. 🙂

Nice photo of the House Finch. I like hearing their song. My photo did not fare well, because the finch was so high up and in shadow. I see the Cowbirds riding the bison at Elk Island National Park.
