I neglected to mention the one very odd thing that happened last night!  My favorite egg arrived and when he opened the door to walk in a finch flew in with him.  It was flying around - the dogs and cats immediately took interest.  After getting everyone locked up we chased it around for a while trying to convince it to go out the back door.  Failing miserably in that attempt I got lucky and he flew into the downstairs bathroom.

I slipped on some gloves and we found Avery's butterfly net.  Between the two I was able to catch a very tired finch and put him out back.  He sat out there at the top of a post for a while but eventually flew off.  How crazy - and it was after dark, so what were you doing out there little buddy?
