Late this afternoon (3-4pm) I had a small flock of House Finches at my feeders which included a "Yellow variant" (Sibley's) or "Orange Variant" (Peterson's).  Lighting was excellent and the male's color was a lovely golden hue (more orange than yellow).  Of course, the skittish flock took off as soon as I approached the window with my camera.  This may have been the same flock I saw about 1:30 further up VT-14 near the end of Jericho St.

Tufted titmouse
White-breasted nuthatch
