    Nice! Thanks for the info. This one had a nest in one of our hanging baskets. It was hidden well so I didn’t get any good pics of the brood, unfortunately.

      They’re pretty chill birds. They will come out to food if you leave it out. They like foraging on the ground naturally so even if it’s just seeds sprinkled out. They’re also known as “winter birds” because they’ll just stay around even in winter. I go out in the snow and sprinkle seeds all over the top of the snow cover and they’ll hop around all over it. :)

      Forgot to mention it in my first post because I was stuck geeking about birds haha. Nice pictures. I like the one where it’s facing the camera particularly.
