I guess old age is creeping in, I thought I'd piped up about these already, but I see not. Maybe in my mind . I know you like these guys almost as much as redpolls, Harvey, so I'm glad they showed up for your magnificent work!

Great shots Harvey , I havent seen one in a couple years I am hoping to get one this year .

Thanks a lot, Ian. I won't comment on 'old age' as in less than a month I will turn 70. I wish I had known I would live this long. I'd have taken much better care of myself.

wonderful set I have yet to see one of these guys this year again wonderful set Harv

Super shots, you captured those really well

Well done Harvey, I see the Cobourg aviary is drawing the up scale birds.

Seems like forever since I've had a local Purple Finch Harv; I'm glad at least someone found one!
Love the snaky perch you've got him on, and the way it dips OOF in the 2nd image. And the lighting in the 2nd image gives such a neat catchlight. Bring us some more!

Hey, Malcolm, thanks a lot. You crack me up. Yes, the odd 'up-scale' bird, but not nearly enough.
