About the bird:
Formerly a
western species only, the House Finch
was inadvertently introduced in the

were released in 1940 near New York
City. The red-colored finches quickly
adapted and expanded their range to
fill most of the continent.

Now a common resident
throughout U.S. and spreading into
Canada.
