flightman Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 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.

Tanager 101 Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 It's a House Finch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gpoole Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 Agree with House Finch with the generally blurrier streaking. A good ID trait for finches and sparrows vs. thrush is the conical bill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flightman Posted June 26, 2022 Author Share Posted June 26, 2022 Thanks, Tanager 101 and gpoole. I did notice the thicker bill. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
