Purple Finch

Lake Frederick

Day two of "The Great Backyard Bird Count" for 2025. Lots of repeat visitors, but a few new ones too.
Always love seeing Purple Finch - this one is starting to get breeding plumage.
The shot was taken through double-paned basement windows - it be only 38° F So, it's not real sharp.
