Picture of the day

A male (top) and female purple finch (Haemorhous purpureus), photographed in the Cap Tourmente National Wildlife Area in Quebec. This species, part of the finch family, mainly eats seeds, berries and insects. They breed in the coniferous and mixed forests of Canada and the northeastern United States; birds from the northern part of this species' range will migrate in the winter.Photograph: Simon Pierre Barrette

Range Map

Range Map is a little confusing, being that Purple Finches are year round in the prairie provinces of Canada so I'm not sure why it doesn't show that on the map. If anyone is to create a new map, which I might be able to do, eBird would probably be useful. NotFromSerbia (talk) 21:25, 12 January 2023 (UTC)
