Here in Colorado we are fortunate to have all three Rosy Finch species (Brown-capped, Black-capped and Gray-Crowned). The Rosy Finches in this tree are predominately Brown-capped with a few Black-capped. The Brown-capped breeds almost exclusively in Colorado in high alpine areas near remote glaciers and snowy meadows. They are high altitude specialists and can be found at elevations of up to 14,000ft.
Colorado Parks and Wildlife has identified them as a species of greatest conservation need. These finches were photographed in the San Juan Mountains of Colorado.
Happy Camper.

SALVATION THROUGH FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS ALONE!
❤️❤️ IT'S ALL JESUS AND NONE OF OURSELVES! ❤️❤️
16 I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the SALVATION of everyone WHO BELIEVES: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile. 17 For in the gospel a RIGHTEOUSNESS FROM GOD IS REVEALED, a righteousness that is by FAITH FROM FIRST TO LAST, just as it is written: "THE RIGHTEOUS WILL LIVE BY FAITH." (Romans 1:16-17)
16 KNOW that a man is NOT justified by observing the law, but by FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST. So we, too, have put our faith in Christ Jesus that we may be JUSTIFIED BY FAITH in CHRIST and NOT by observing the law, BECAUSE BY OBSERVING THE LAW NO ONE WILL BE JUSTIFIED. (Galatians 2:16)
1. Now, brothers, I want to remind you of the gospel I preached to you, which you received and on which you have taken your stand. 2. BY THIS GOSPEL YOU ARE SAVED, if you hold firmly to the word I preached to you. Otherwise, you have believed in vain.
3. For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, 4. that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, 5. and that he appeared to Peter, and then to the Twelve. 6. After that, he appeared to more than five hundred of the brothers at the same time, most of whom are still living, though some have fallen asleep. 7. Then he appeared to James, then to all the apostles, 8. and last of all he appeared to me also, as to one abnormally born.
9. For I am the least of the apostles and do not even deserve to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. 10. But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace to me was not without effect. No, I worked harder than all of them--yet not I, but the grace of God that was with me. 11. Whether, then, it was I or they, this is what we preach, and this is what you believed. (1 Corinthians 15:1-11)
7. Therefore Jesus said again, "I tell you the truth, I am the gate for the sheep. 8. All who ever came before me were thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them. 9. I am the gate; whoever enters through me WILL BE SAVED. He will come in and go out, and find pasture. 10. The thief comes only to STEAL and KILL and DESTROY; I have come that they may have LIFE, and have it to the FULL. (John 10:7-10)
Jesus came to bring spiritual LIFE to the spiritually dead and set the captives FREE! FREE from RELIGION, ERROR and outright LIES, so WE might serve THE LIVING GOD! In SPIRIT and in TRUTH!
So you'll KNOW, and not think you're to bad for God to love. The Christian LIFE isn't about how good WE are, because NONE of us are! It's about how GOOD JESUS IS! Because JESUS LOVES US, so much he died in our place and took the punishment for all of our sins on himself. The wages of sin is DEATH, and Jesus died that death for YOU and I. The good news is there no more punishment for sin left, we were and are all born forgive as a result of the crucifixion of God himself on the cross that took away the sins of the whole world. All we have to do is believe it, and put your Faith in the finished work of Jesus Christ. That my friends is REAL UNCONDITIONAL LOVE! YOU ARE LOVED. ❤️ ✝️ ❤️

It's that time of year when I put down my camera and take a sabbatical from photography. I will be checking in now and then and will be back in early spring .. Take care and be safe.
The Purple Finch is the bird that Roger Tory Peterson famously described as a “sparrow dipped in raspberry juice.” .. I've always loved that description
I had reason to be in my archives late yesterday so decided to post these three images from days gone by.
A bird that I have only seen once or twice at my home, Yakima County, Washington. I first saw her at about 1:30 pm and although she has been here on and off she was here as of 7:45 pm this evening. Hopefully my id is correct. Female and immature Purple Finches are similar. IMG_9796
The purple finches add an intensity to the color around the garden these rather dark and dreary days

I liked the way these house finches were interacting with each other and the almost mirror image they created.
She is sitting on the ledge of her favorite feeder which is usually in shadow and against a cluttered background. I tried my flash at a higher power which basically eliminated the background.
This image also shows a difference between the House Finch and the Purple Finch. The upper ridge (culmen) of the House Finch bill has a pronounced curve. The culmen of the Purple Finch is straight. This applies to both sexes.
Hermitage Park, Edmonton, Alberta.
This male House Finch [like the Redpoll in this photo www.flickr.com/photos/luminouscompositions/51784127631/in... ] presents red plumage in combination with the green of an outdoor light {not lit in this image} — seasonal colours in keeping with the time of year around Christmas. It was a white holiday in 2021 in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, and a cold one too with daytime “high” temperatures of around -25 C before wind chill. Even bundled up in numerous layers, I did not stay out long — particularly since operating a camera with only a light glove soon led to cold fingers. Yet much smaller birds like this individual manage provided they can find food.
I took this during a snow storm. The bird stopped for a rest on the old branch.

This house finch pair has been hanging around the back yard the last couple of days, and they've been quite cooperative.
Sandia Crest, N.M.
During our few hours hanging out at the Crest House area the weather went from bad to worse making photography conditions extremely challenging. My earlier post of the Hepburn's variety of the Gray-Crowned Rosy-Finch was photographed at closer range and in somewhat better conditions. In the fog and cold significant hoar frost formed on our gear while shooting and the winds also picked up. I used the dehaze functionality in Lightroom to help salvage this image. These are hardy birds to thrive in such conditions!
I have always felt unsure of whether I'm actually seeing a Purple Finch or not, but I feel pretty confident about this one. The "sparrow dipped in raspberry juice" description fits it awfully well.

I like seeing the alternate yellow plumage on this House Finch. He posed in the light in front of a shaded background.

The colouring of the male House Finch can range from deep red to golden yellow, depending on available diet during molting.
