Gray-Crowned Rosy-Finch

I caught this little guy eating out of our bird feeders this morning. I watched him for several minutes. He ate mostly sunflower seeds, but also sampled the thistle seed. When the Cassin's Finches showed up, he quickly left. After they had been gone a while, he came back. Perhaps he was watching from the neighbor's trees? I took a few pictures of him, but they turned out fairly dark. So here is a Googled picture. The map in our book said they winter here in Wyoming. I hope he sticks around long enough for Jake to see him!


I think he's pretty cool.
