CTfinchforever. I haven’t made it our West yet, but I hear the goldfinch against the backdrop of the Rockies is breathtaking. Do you have any photos? Maybe we can swap. Let me know.

As you know, Finchfriend234, the finch is hard to capture on film, but I do have many other birds (cardinal, bluejay, etc.) against the backdrop of the Rockies. Would these interest you? What do you have?

Does anyone out there know why the gold finch has a red face? Is it to protect itself from predators? Or just to look pretty for all of us. LOL!

As you all should know, calling yourselves FINCH LOVERS… the red face is for mating. The male finch is attracted to it. CTfinchforever, I would like to see some of your other photos.
