This is news to me. I too have always believed the house finch to be the purple finch. Thanks for the correction. I need to get my field glasses out and watch the feeder more closely this spring to see if we have purple finches in the area.
Oh well. As my Daddy used to say, "If you can't be right, at least be confident and people will think you are." With the footnote, "You probably know more about what you're talking about than they do anyway." That aside, I love your hunger to know more and to share your knowledge and experience! Love you to the moon. Mom

They're fun to watch--and probably already starting nesting season where you are!
