Thank you to everyone who helped with the mystery bird.  It's been
unanimous - it's a Purple Finch.  That was my first thought, but the
yellow on it really threw me off.  I'm still willing to send the
pictures to anyone who wants to see them.

I need to correct something from yesterday:  I wrote, "Well, I've got
about a dozen now!"  I meant about a half dozen (Pine Siskins).  That
one word makes a big difference!  Haven't seen them today, but I'll keep
looking.  I did get my first White-throated Sparrow of the season!
