Well depending on the light, pinkish red.
Male Eurasian Bullfinch.
One of my favourite UK birds and always special to see, especially close up. Remember Chris Packham once giving a sliding scale of finch 'value' to the bird watcher. One Hawfinch being worth 10 Bullfinches - and a male Bullfinch being worth 100 Chaffinches (or something like that). I would say Bullfinches are worth more than that!

Our son and daughter-in-law will be staying with us for the next week. I'll try to do my Flickring in the early morning--while everyone in the household is still sleeping! If I don't get around to you right away, I will catch up as soon as I can! Have a great weekend!
A nice morning to be along the river looking out over Sparrows Point and the Chesapeake Bay on the outskirts of the Baltimore Harbor.

She flew in and I was able to get off a few shots before she realized I was there.

This little lady allowed me to get quite close while she posed for me. There was also a male in the area so I think she was a little of a flirt! Lifer for me taken in Crooked Tree Wildlife Sanctuary, Belize. Another photo of this Vermilion Flycatcher is in the comment box.
Thank you for your visit and comments. They are very much appreciated.

I found it difficult to make a choice for this week (it seems I'm often indecisive!), but after much to-ing and fro-ing I decided to go with a sewing theme. The scissors and awl in the foreground belong to a boxed set of sewing tools (open in the background). They are some kind of white metal, not silver, and they date from the 1910s. The other bits in the set are a thimble, a bodkin needle and a needle case (étui). The Sylko cotton reels, in Pale Rose and Lt Pomegranate, date from somewhere between 1938 and the early 1950s. The tiny enamel buttons are Victorian.
For this week's Looking Close... on Friday group theme, Hand Tools.

I found this male hummingbird coming down from a tree to feast on some pink clover growing in a patch of grass & weeds by the train track. Some stalks were in the way; this was the best of several shots that I was able to get, as it shows off that bright pink colour! You can just discern his wings fluttering as he feeds.
When I checked the photo on the computer, I saw to my great surprise and joy that is was an Anna's Hummingbird. I had not seen these here before in the Vancouver areas of BC, but apparently they do have habitats here.
Note: The Anna's Hummingbird was voted as the official bird of BC.These and the Rufous Hummingbirds do not migrate south in winter; they stay all year long.
