Will finches eat from a tray feeder?

Tray feeders attract birds that regularly feed on the ground, such as Pigeons, doves, juncos, and sparrows. Other birds such as blue jays, cardinals, woodpeckers, grackles, goldfinches, siskins, wrens, buntings, warblers, and nuthatches feel comfortable visiting tray feeders.

“The largest creature with teeth, Leviathan can clamp onto a squid the length of a living room, squid species bearing names such as “giant” and “colossal.” Battles ensue. But most squid they eat, such as the diamondback squid here off Dominica, are around three feet long. And many are much smaller. A male sperm whale killed off Madeira in 1959 had four thousand squid mandibles in his stomach. Of these, 95 percent were from squid that had weighed under about two pounds. It is almost inconceivable that a sixty-foot whale could get enough calories by chasing such relatively tiny squid one at a time. And many squid found in the stomachs of sperm whales didn’t have a tooth mark on them.
To imagine how sperm whales eat, consider their strangely long and exceedingly narrow jaw. The jaw of all other large whales, as in most mammals, including humans, is about as wide as the rest of the head. Exceptions in mammals—anteaters, for instance—indicate extreme specialization. Sperm whales possess an exceptionally thin and narrow mandible. For most of its length, the two sides are fused into a rod. That rod-like jaw is topped with curved, finger[…]”

Irvine is a college town (home of the fighting anteaters of UC Irvine), and is just south of LA. It's about 15 or 20 miles inland from the ocean and is very warm (hot even) in the Summer time. I think it has a population of around 200,000, which is almost meaningless in that part of SoCal. Essentially, it's almost non-stop city from LA down to San Diego. I would assume that housing will be VERY expensive and that traffic will be a nightmare.

This is the song of the mud,



The pale yellow glistening mud that covers the hills like satin;



The grey gleaming silvery mud that is spread like enamel over the valleys;==Mary Borden

It has not rained here in a while and it has been hot
The ground here is like a rock

But we got a thunderstorm going and expect more tomorrow
