“He was so benevolent, so merciful a man that, in his mistaken passion, he would have held an umbrella over a duck in a shower of rain,” Douglas Jerrold is reported to have said. And since I can’t be around 24/7 to hold an umbrella over the sweet red finches who visit my urban (NYC) garden, I can provide this marvelous bird (as well as his comrades) with a dome style feeder as seen here. BTW, if the quote sounds familiar to you, I referred to it on TLLG’s Blogger Pages this past July.
