Yesterday, I observed 2 immature house finches 'begging' for food. Momma
flew to the bird feeder, picked up a sunflower seed, flew back to the
little beggers, broke open the seed and fed it to one of its little ones.
This seems a bit late for hatching a brood or is it just a case of a Momma
who can't let the kids go?
