🌎 House finch (Haemorhous mexicanus) The house finch is a small, adaptable bird of the true finch family Fringillidae. Males are distinctive with rosy-red on their face, throat, and upper breast, contrasting with streaky brown body plumage. Females are plain greyish-brown with blurry streaks. Yellow and orange forms of the male house finch are not rare, but they are also not as common as the typical red colouration. Originally from the western United States and Mexico, they were introduced to the east and are now widespread across North America, thriving in urban, suburban, and semi-open habitats. House finches are highly social, often forming large flocks, especially outside breeding season. They are common at bird feeders, feeding primarily on seeds, buds, and fruits. Males sing a cheerful, warbling song, particularly during courtship, which includes a "butterfly flight" display. They are not territorial and often nest in close proximity. 2.5 Flash (Edited) Conservation status: Least Concern (IUCN 3.1) 📷: Photo by Veronika_Andrews via Pixabay https://pixabay.com/photos/yellow-house-finches-nature-bird-9613611/ TEGY
