Roasted Sunflower Seeds

First it looked like a House Finch but the behavior was somewhat different.  House Finch hardly eats at a bird bath feeder placed on the patio during the winter months.  So to find out who it really was,  I looked through the camera lens.  Aha !  Just as I suspected, it was a rare visitor:   a Purple Finch with the deep pink head and white eyebrows.

"I haven't been here for a long time, but I took a chance 

to come and check.  I am glad I found a lot of sunflower seeds here."

"I am almost full."
