The three rosy finches arrived at the location at 1:05pm and fed on the =
ground in front of the blue building for a short period of time. Then =
around 1:15-18pm they were flushed up by the workers and landed in the =
back of one of the service trucks and fed in the bed of the truck. Then =
the birds flew up and headed over to the Reservation school across from =
the original location. Peder Svingen and I drove over there and refound =
the finches feeding on the ground near some enclosed dumpsters. The =
birds then flew up and try to land on my truck and also on Peder's =
truck! I took a ton of photos of the birds on top of the fence near the =
enclosed dumpsters. Then the finches began to chase each other and they =
few over to the playground and fed near some other green dumpsters =
giving me wonderful opportunities to digiscope the finches feeding on =
the ground. Then the bird flew up and headed back over to the Resource =
(blue) buildings at 1:45pm. Peder was there taking more photos when I =
left for home. So if the birds are not at the Resource buildings drive =
over to the school and check the playground area behind the school.
I posted some of the picture of these finches on my website and they can =
be found in "Recent Sightings"
Good Birding!
