Purple finches, from early May, taken when the bird feeder was moved right up to the living room window.

Peek-a-boo! I see you!
Getting photos while the feeder was moved by the window when the trees were cleared from the roof has made me seriously consider moving it closer on a more permanent basis. If it wasn’t a higher traffic pathway, I would have done that right from the start. The lilac the purple finch is on in the photo on the right is about the same distance from the house as the feeder is, during the summer, so the zoom lens does make up for it rather well.
Purple squiishy!!! Please share your thoughts…

They look more red than purple. 🙂 Great pictures though.

Yes, I do wonder why they are called purple finches when they are not purple!
But then, purple martins aren’t purple, either. Lol
