Wow, Pelle, 55mph! That's pretty stout! It has been so windy here too but not anywhere near. I hope your day faired well.

I'm so tickled I was following these 3 House Finches. First I thought there were the usual 'song and dance' of the mating couple. But, it turned out; it was Papa feeding his young. For the Moma was right beside them coaxing/encouraging the 'kid' to get to the feeder instead. What a sweet experience to have.

*Note; the female on the left. It has got to be the the fledgling. Notice its under-developed tail compared to Mom's on the right. (I picked this up since I've watched enough of BB's and others fledlings pix on our forum -- thanks all for sharing your pics. and experiences).
