The vibrant Red House Finch.
Male house finches brighten up during breeding season, displaying red, orange, or yellow feathers to attract mates. Their color is influenced by their diet; when they access berries, fruits, and seeds rich in carotenoids, they develop vibrant red hues.

Nature's Will
Sky of the canvas, streaked with light,
Electric veins pulsed the night.
Clouds roared, thunderous song,
Lightning pierced, bold, and strong.
In awe, we stood, small and still,
Witnessing nature’s unyielding will.

Hi birdgirl09, they are awesome birds! We currently have a nest in our driveway. She was here last year and hatched three. I placed a cage over her again this year due to the presence of coyotes in the area. There are now three eggs she is sitting on again.

Anna's Hummingbird Glow
At Kelly's Point, where the thunder rumbles, the wind blows,
Anna's hummingbird, its colors blazing, radiating its glow.
Beneath the electric skies, vibrant plumes dance,
On the shores of Guemes, he takes a stance.
