Purple Finch (Haemorhous purpureous)

Female and Male, Quaker Bridge Home, May 3, 2019/ Mar 21, 2026


First ebirded at Croton Point Park on October 27, 2014.

These finches mix in with the house finches at the feeder on occasion. Spotted the first feeder finch, a female, in May 2019 and initially didn't know what it was.

We've also spotted purple finches in Newfoundland and New Jersey.
