I haven’t had much time lately for backyard birding as I’ve been trying to take advantage of the short autumn color display of the aspens. But yesterday morning I spent an hour or so watching the variety of birds coming to the bird bath. It’s been pretty dry lately so the bird bath has been pretty popular. While most summer migrants have moved on, I still have plenty of year-round residents coming in, including these two Cassin’s finches. As the photo shows, they don’t really like to share the water.
