What Giliell said. I’m surprised they’re just called ‘house finches’ and not something more dramatic like ‘scarlet finches’ (like the more appropriately designated purple finch). ‘House finch’ makes me think of a drab little grey-brown sparrow-like bird, but the reality is constantly surprising to me. For some reason.
Still on medication, though, so who knows.
