I could be wrong, but I think it's a bird on a tree.



Oh you mean, what kind of house in the back! That'd be a ranch house.

You may be right. Though I thought ranches had horses, not birds.

American Goldfinch, male in breeding color.

it *is* pretty... we get house finches with breast color ranging toward yellow, but that guy's outfit is pretty loud. did you hear him sing?

Nope, all the birds (there were about 5 of them) gave me the silent treatment. :-(
