Our State Bird

I finally got a decent picture of our state bird; the Purple Finch. We had a ton of birds today at our feeders and I spotted this Purple Finch hiding in our Lilac bush.

The way we are going, maybe the turkey would be better. A very smart bird but you never know what they are going to do.

Benjamin Franklin wanted the Turkey to be our National Bird.
