Very nice shots, tekkie. It's actually a House Finch though.

cool I thought that at first but from the book I have (Birds of Michigan) the house did not look like it had as much color

Yes, the Purple Finch are more raspberry colored, a bluer red and it extends over more of their body. The males have less streaking than the male House Finches. Here's one I shot in 2006 ...

Great series, nice and sharp!
