New bird at my house




Could you please help me identify this bird? The photo quality is not very clear, because I took them through my dirty windows. I haven't seen this bird before. What is it?

Great photo, it is the male House Finch. the female is all brown, the male has the reddish color on him.

How fun that you have another pop of red out in your winter landscape. I had these finches last fall but they moved on. I agree on the house finch ID.

How beautiful! My birdfeeders have rats in them down here in SW Florida! Some birds too, and squirrels, but rats nonetheless. Yours are much prettier.

House finches are really great singers too Bonnie! You will enjoy having them around.

Yes, house finch. We have a pair who like to sit on the bar that holds our feeder. I have several of the pair as they are having a "conversation."

Hi,
Thanks for visiting my blog this morning.That little bird is so pretty. We have them on our front porch every year...making a nest on top of our light fixture or in my wreath. I saw them yesterday. You have such wonderful bird pictures. The birds on the teacup feeder are beautiful.
