Hello, I saw today that a House Finch in my yard has eye disease. You can read more about this on Feeder Watch: https://feederwatch.org/learn/house-finch-eye-disease/. I have 5-6 pairs of House Finches and 8-12 of Goldfinch. I am going to keep my feeders down for about a week. I don't think this bird will recover.
I live in Uptown, so people who live nearby might want to keep a lookout for similar problems and take extra cleaning precautions.
