Today, we have a House Finch with an large growth under the feathers
located near the top part(tibial feathers) of one of the legs in the
flank area. I am estimating that the diameter of this growth to be 1/4
to 1/2 inches with an equal extension from the flank. He seems to be
eating ok from our feeders, but his flight seems slower. Has anybody
seen this on other finches? His eyes are not closed up with that other
finch disease.
Thanks
