House Finch (1 Viewer)

The House Finch was originally restricted to the western U. S. Before such practices became illegal, many of these birds were imported into the eastern U. S. for sale in the cage bird trade. Many birds were released into the wild and these birds can now be found throughout most of the eastern states. The last several years have seen population declines in many areas due to an eye disease which leaves them quite vulnerable to predation.
