[Tweeters] Retry on report re: Port Angeles house finches

[Dennis Paulson]

Interestingly, we have remarked that this has been a banner year for House Finches and Spotted Towhees in our yard, with more juveniles than we’ve ever seen before. It’s fun watching them interact.

A few minutes ago I counted 18 juvenile/female plumage on the deck at my feeders - and no telling how many adults and other juveniles are waiting their turns or have already filled up. I watched a male feeding a begging youngster earlier this morning. I've also had a great contingent of young Spotted towhees this year as well.  I'm glad to hae at least some of the birds thriving this year.
