House Finch, male, Québec, Canada

This male House Finch with its snowy beak is resting quietly after a meal of sunflower seeds, its favorite winter food. It was here with other finches and other bird species such as Chickadees, Jays, Juncos. And where there is food, there is always fighting. The winters are quite cold up here and food is scarce therefore wintering birds require a little help.
