Double-bar visit

We have two finch species that are seen on our property, one the Red-browed finch is a resident and sighted almost every day but our other is the Double-bar finch which has a range generally north of us. We have visits on occasions when the weather conditions are conducive to an extended seasonal migration and this year we have been fortunate to have a few with us. Their call is very distinctive so you know when they are in your vicinity although the photogenic one was actually on its own but getting around with a family of wrens.
