Hi all,
My wife Brenda and I are pleased to announce the arrival of our latest new yard-bird, a female Purple Finch at one of our front yard feeders in Clintonville at 10 a.m. this morning. Clintonville is a heavily ravined neighborhood in Columbus. We live at the end of Milford Ave by the railroad tracks. 
 
Also seen:
White Breasted Nuthactch
Red-Bellied Woodpecker (unusual for our yard)
 
Steve Pendleton and Brenda Rushka
