The house finch was originally a bird of the western United States and Mexico. In 1940 a small number of finches were turned loose on Long Island, N.Y., after failed attempts to sell them as cage birds (鈥淗ollywood finches鈥�). They quickly started breeding and spread across almost all of the eastern United States and southern Canada within the next 50 years. Source: allaboutbirds.org. Photo by Vicky Clayton
