New yard bird today in Cheverly. My first Purple Finch (male) dropped in
with the other finches to check out the bird feeder. The Starlings spooked
it away before it could feed. It was nice to see finally, as I have been
scrutinizing all winter - looking at each House Finch with the hope I'd
have a Purple Finch in the bunch.
My first female Cowbirds showed up today too.
