What Entices a Rosy-Finch to your Feeder?

All three species of rosy-finches will use a variety of desert, mountain, and foothill habitat in the winter.

We've learned from your reports that rosy-finches seem to be picky about the feeder locations they visit.

Here are photos highlighting feeders in Colorado:

We're also fans of the placement of his rosy-finch sticker!
