Most of the Gold Finches have left this week.
They've been replaced by House Finches.
I also have lots of Towhees. The are ground feeders generally, but they also work the suet and peanut feeders.
The Gold-crowned Sparrows are ground feeders too.
They are gaining in number this time of year.
I have Song Sparrows all year long.
The Juncos are year around too, though I see them at the feeders in the fall and winter - during spring and summer they find their food elsewhere.

You have such pretty birds out there, Beth! We still have a few goldfinches hanging around, but the one I saw this morning looked very cold and ready to fly south. Love that rosy colored finch!
We are currently seeing many juncos.
enjoyed seeing the birds what a lovely variety
Love the little birds. I like to watch the towhees scratch up the leaves to see what is hidden beneath.
The Sparrows are beautiful.
So pretty! How come the first bird looks red? Pretty color!
I love how much red your house finch has! The red is not so pronounced on the ones in my yard. The other birds are beautiful too.
That IS a really red house finch!
