Though summer is knocking the door, we have continued to offer seeds for birds. During the winter we didn't bullfinches at all, and now when they should be hiding and nesting, they have emerged to your feeders. - Very nice looking birds so we are pleased.

Good observation! - To compare it to the dark head of the male (which was in slight shadow), it's much better.
