A pair of House Finches stop for lunch at a local bird feeder, July 30.

Several pairs of House Finches frequent Clarkston Area Birders Club member Bill Haney’s feeder, even though it is intended for Baltimore Orioles.
The birds contest with many pairs of Orioles, Cardinals, Redheaded Woodpeckers, Red-Bellied Woodpekcers, and the occasional inspection tour by Bluebirds, Mourning Doves, and various flycatchers, Haney said.
