Backyard Birds of Washington Mug — Labeled Chickadee, Robin, House Finch & Goldfinch (11oz)
Backyard Birds of Washington Mug — Labeled Chickadee, Robin, House Finch & Goldfinch (11oz)
Washington's state bird is the American Goldfinch, and it is on this mug.
The state picked it by a schoolchildren's vote and still calls it the Willow Goldfinch. Three more Pacific Northwest regulars join it, each illustration labeled by name.
On this mug: Black-capped Chickadee · American Robin · House Finch · American Goldfinch
West of the Cascades your chickadee may be a Chestnut-backed Chickadee instead — same shape and manner, but with a rich chestnut back and flanks where the Black-capped is grey. If yours looks warmer than it should, that is why.
The House Finch male is red on the head, throat and rump over brown streaks; the female is plain and streaky with no face pattern.
The American Robin works the lawn in the rain, which in Washington is most of the time.
