flightman Posted June 26 Share Posted June 26 I saw this bird this morning in Lido Beach NY. The breast markings seem to be more spots than streaks that I would expect on a female House Finch but I don't know what else it might be. I'm pretty sure that it is not a thrush.

gpoole Posted June 26 Share Posted June 26 Agree with House Finch with the generally blurrier streaking. A good ID trait for finches and sparrows vs. thrush is the conical bill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
