New Visitors

The excitement for the day was the presence of two male American Goldfinches in the apple tree this morning. They are in breeding plumage; brilliant, glowing yellow, and are spectacular additions to the year's bird list.

We too saw a finch like visitor in the maple tree.

We saw a couple of either purple finches or house finches down at the beach on Sunday.
