Watch House (Purple) Finch chicks hatch, grow up and escape disaster!

Описание к видео Watch House (Purple) Finch chicks hatch, grow up and escape disaster!

So this is the last of a series of videos of the House Finch birds. I put together key moments during the 5 weeks when the House Finches make a nest, lay the eggs, and raise the six chicks until they are able to fly away on their own. This is almost all new footage (not a repeat of my previous videos) of the birds and chicks. You'll see the mother House Finch prepare the nest, lay the first egg, feed the hatchlings and watch them grow up until they are ready to leave the nest. You'll also see some interaction between the male and female birds as he feeds her and perhaps an intimate moment too. And then watch the surprise ending to this story as the chicks narrowly escape!

Note that a couple of comments say that these are actually Purple Finches. That may very well be based on the Purple Finch has a red rump, V at bottom of tail and brownish red cheeks and they are native to the Pacific coast (which is where I am)
