Feel free to share your photos and other birding-related content here. If a photo you post isn't yours, please credit the original creator! Additionally, it would be appreciated if the location of the sighting and a date were given when a photo or question is posted. You do not have to give the precise location, something like "Northern Idaho, June 2023" or even "North-Western US, June 2023" suffices.

Mrs. Finchy and I go way way back.

She's not afraid of me! I sit mere feet away, and her and her mate are feeding without a care. Isn't she gorgeous?

Just because this is about friendly finches..

I was at a campsite yesterday morning, and this chaffinch was hopping around me, not being scared:

I guess he's used to bum snacks off of visitors.

I made a video throwing him a nut that i wanted to share here, but couldn't figure out how.

I hung around that camp site way longer than i should have, giving the finch some nuts, haha. So nice.
