Fw: Red-browed Finch

["Margaret Leggoe" <>]

Certainly the rear toe has a very long claw in these images.  But perhaps not much longer than usual.  Those 2 small claws about half way down it’s foot on the right foot doo look a little short but I wonder if it is the “head on” angle from which they were photographed.  Here are another six RFT feet for comparison.

         This photo of a Red-browed Finch was taken at Karma Reserve this afternoon,It’s the first time that I have noticed how long its claws are, and that it has 2 small claws about half way down it’s foot.
