I noticed this sick male House Finch today. He has a bad case of avian conjunctivitis. I'll be cleaning my feeders more now, or maybe even taking them down until I don't see him any longer. Unfortunately, I don't think there's anything that can be done for him.



Yesterday's photo:

Canon EOS R5
1/800s f/9.0 at 800.0mm iso6400 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

That is so sad. I hope he can survive.

This is so sad. Finches seem especially prone to this and I've seen it more than I'd like at feeders especially. Beautiful shot, however. V
