Winter Catchup II, or 'Son of', or 'Bride of'

Just a few more left over pics from our winter, including some exclusive shots from the Albuquerque porch of our sis-in-law Ginger. Enjoy.

Never get tired of this regular at the thistle feeder, the male Lesser Goldfinch.

 Likewise the House Finch is a year-round resident, and always at the office deck feeders.

 A regal pose for the 'common' House Finch.

The Great Blue Heron landed on the far side of the pond.

 This is what a House Finch looks like in sub-zero weather in Albuquerque, NM! Rather puffed up!
                             
A bird that we rarely see in Central Texas, the female Junco.

And her mate the male Junco. These are sparrows with a different color scheme. Our visit was short in ABQ, but a blessing still!
