The House Finch is a common bird normally found in a variety of habitats, and is found at its northern limits in central Ontario, where I live about 50 kiolmetres north of Toronto on Lake Ontario, where I live in Aurora.   The House Finch was introduced in the East in the 1940s, and quickly included all of the lower U.S.A., southern Canada and parts of Mexico.   Its voice is a lively, high-pitched song that consists mainly of varying strident 3-note phrases.
