Male House Finch

My little bird book says this is a male house finch. I know you all will let me know if I'm wrong :). Seattle had a sunny break from the constant rain. Thanks for your visits and comments.

Pretty against the blue sky. Are those possibly buds on the tree? (I went looking at our cherry trees yesterday and am hoping it is true.)

[gloria jones]

@tracys Yes they are buds and the birds were eating them.

Really nice shot of the house finch (or as we sometimes call him the purple finch) - their markings and color always make a pretty picture - and they even tend to stay still for a bit on occasion. Nice pov and wonderful against the blue sky.

Great capture as always:)
