Purple Finch
|
Crooked River - Thursday, May 6, 2004 by: Helen Carson |
|
They arrived at the
beginning of April. Though they are called "Purple", they look like sparrows
dipped in raspberry juice. The female of course is just brown striped.
|
|
I caught a male at the feeder with his cap ruffed up.
They seem to do that when agitated by other birds.
|
|
Our maple trees are full of them in the mornings especially.
So I was able to get this shot of two pairs among the buds.
