I thought I'd be the only one checking out the daily thread on x-mas day and was thrilled to see there are other crazy people out there like me. Dave's bird watchers rock! Don't have a pic that's good enough for the daily thread though!

This morning GORGEOUS house finches all over! A friend who is a super serious birder told me that purple finches have been spotted near me, so I'm staring at every house finch for any sign of purple finchness! This house finch looked big, but it's cold this morning so just puffed up. He also has some yellow. He was so pretty. It's just so dark out that I couldn't get him. Today is a cold, blustery dark x-mas day. I may need to head to Hawaii too!
