Thank you for posting those shots...now that I see the difference...a little deeper color and more of it...that helps with ID. I don't think we have the purple finch here in the Midwest...but I'll certainly keep a watch out for it.

You do, indeed, have the purple finch there. They are non breeding residents in your area.

Very nice capture. He sure is cute all puffed up. I wish I had birds this colorful in my yard. Thanks for sharing. :thumbup:

Stunning shot of a beautiful bird. What would you guess the distance was? In ft'.

About 6ft or so....not much less than that.
I wish I could get that close to my birds but even though I keep them fed well, the closest I can get is about 30ft'. Makes it hard to get a pic.
