House Finches in My Backyard

Үй жануарлары мен аңдар

A pair of house finches built a nest in a corner on a patio cover in my backyard. I noticed it a week or two ago and finally decided to film it up close with my 360-degree camera. I used an "Insta360 ONE X" on a selfie stick that was mounted on a tripod so that I could just let it sit there filming while I left the backyard. That let the parents get used to the "camera intruder". It's a 360-degree camera that films an entire sphere. The editing software then allows me to choose what portion of the sphere will appear in my video. Therefore, the camera was completely still during the entire video and the apparent movement is just done by changing the point of view in the post-processing edit. Although the view appears to move around a lot, the camera actually remains stationary until the near end of the video.

    I love that you used a 360 camera so that there isn't an actual foreign moving object potentially scaring the birds away from the nest! I have so much respect for people who go the extra mile to admire nature but not disturb the natural order in the process. 😊😊💜💜

    I just had 3 fledgling House Finches leave the nest. Mom and Dad (who was the red shades) were always hovering nearby and gave me wonderful songs throughout the day. As soon as the last baby left, Mom and Dad left too and I miss their songs.

    Thank you so much for setting this up. I recently discovered house finches. They were looking for a nesting site past couple years at my place but only settled for the fire sprinklers and a resting site instead. Needless to say, it got pretty messy! But I loved hearing one. Then its mate the following year. Here in the PNW. Thanks again for sharing. 💕☺️. You keep an immaculate yard too. And your doggies are precious!

    My Red Finches had built & raised 2 different sets of babies this summer. My hubby was taking pictures threw each brew. The 2nd set flew away yesterday. The parents at least 4 adult Finches sang to me all day long start from 6am. I feed them high quality Song Bird Seeds plus another brand. None of them showed up this morning. Does anyone know if they'll come back to my deck again? Thanks!

    I'm no expert on their behavior, so I don't know what would happen if you moved it to a nearby, safer location. Maybe build a small temporary shelf for it if there isn't a good place to move it to within a short distance of the original location, but out of the way of your front door traffic. If you do move it, I suggest you wear rubber gloves to keep your human smell off the nest. If they don't continue to build on the moved nest, it probably means they found some other location on their own.

    I feed house finches on my balcony but one of them has the eye sickness and although I disinfect the feeder every couple of days I wonder if I should stop feeding them, so the rest of them wouldn't catch it buy accident. There are 6 pairs and I am in a condo complex and its nesting season and they seem to heavily rely on the feeder now. What would you recommend?

    I’m no expert. Hard to know if removing their food source would cause more harm than the possibility of catching the eye sickness. Hard decision, but least you are doing your best by disinfecting the feeder.

    The camera never moved at all. It is a 360 degree camera that films the entire sphere around it. In the post-edit, I then selected what rectangle within the sphere I wanted to show you, and I can move that rectangle to any position. The birds never saw any camera movement.
