Comments (8)Hi Kathi, I'm new here, been hanging around the Florida Forum for years but moving this direction for my yard so doing a little lurking... :-) I believe the picture of what you're questioning as Blue Sky Thunbergia is actually a solanum wendlandii, based not only on flowers but actually the leaf appearance/structure. Sorry the picture in the link does not show the leaves but I don't want to link to any commercial sites.... Tom...See Morevisiting house finch
Comments (11)House finches...to love them or to hate them? Here's the story. They are native to Mexico and the Western United States, but were brought into the NYC area as cage birds in the 1930's. When pet stores found out they were a protected species (almost all passerines are), they released them, and the released birds began to breed. From those few dozen birds, the population of house finches in the northeastern states grew to over 10 million, and they began to spread southward. The first accepted record of one appearing in Florida was in 1983. The birds now breed as far south as Tampa and Lakeland, with some isolated colonies appearing even farther south. The malel house finch's color can vary from yellow to red, with the females seeming to prefer the reddest males. So...they don't really belong here, but they sure are pretty, and I suspect there is not one thing we can do about them being here, so we may as well enjoy them. Great pictures, Kara! Thanks for sharing! Marcia...See Morehere are some pictures... i hope.
Comments (2)I love the smiley face BB, that's really cute. Will you put it in the garden? I also really like your idea of attaching the sunflower plate to the wooden spool. How big is that and what are you going to use it for, a birdfeeder maybe?...See More- 13 years ago
