The bird of our logo: The Lesser Goldfinch (Spinus Psaltria)
This is the picture, taken in the juniper ash trees located around our feeders, inspired our logo and led to us finding out so much about this interesting bird. The lesser goldfinch is thought to be one of the smallest finches in the world and the one picture below is just one of 5 subspecies. The scientific name psaltria is translated from ancient Greek to mean female harpist owing this name to their soothing call.

White-winged dove with Melanism stops by the live feeder 04-26-2023.
Birds with Melanism produce an abnormal amount of dark melanin pigmentation making them appear dark brown to black, or a mixture of the two.

Buntings are Back in Central Texas! First observed 04/21/2023. It's been a while since we saw painting buntings last summer but good to finally see them back now since spring migration is in full swoop.
