1:30 PM – The birdbath that was damaged by ice has been converted into a platform feeder. D put it up at about 11:30, by 11:32 there were birds in it. Seems to be very popular with the Tufted Titmouse, so far. This is a video of a couple Purple Finches having a snack.

Speaking of Purple Finches, this video shows what I think is actually a House Finch. The House variety have red head and breast. It’s hard to tell the difference. So far, the research I did only says that the Purple Finches are slightly smaller and ‘neater’ than the House Finch. Whatever that means. So, here is a House Finch, probably. Maybe.
