What
House Finch (Haemorhous mexicanus)Observer
gene70Description
I noticed these house finches building a nest in the stoplight on NE corner as I was crossing the street.
I wonder: why nest yellow and not red and green light?
- Maybe location -the middle seems protective.
- Or do they like yellow?
Are there many photos of birds nesting in signal lights and do they have their own page. I should look into it...

Several of these Asian lady beetles were on the same plant. I made two observations of what I considered "non-typical" Asian Lady Beetles. But then again, what is typical...
- This individual had "Small/ no spots"
-
This individual here, had "large spots"
