MarkG Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 I saw this bird foraging with a few House Finches and quickly realized it wasn't a House Finch. It stumped me at first, but I was able to get a few photos of it. I'm like 99% sure it's a young Blue Grosbeak, but I thought I'd post the photo for a second opinion. Thanks...

The Bird Nuts Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 It is a House Finch. It appears to be a young one with the visible gape and light brown edged feathers. A Blue Grosbeak would have a larger beak and no streaking. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
