Mark Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 These guys were in the local park I go to here in San Antonio early this Easter morning. In the one picture is what appears to possibly be a male and female with a N. Mockingbird in the same tree. Good reference for size comparison, they were smaller than the Mockingbird. I figured it was a warbler based upon the bill shape and the song he was singing out - but wasn't sure it was matching up to my resource for calls and songs to the detriment of my memory. But, I got the pics. Looking at my Cornell resource, the pics appear to match up, but when I tried to add to my list for my area, the Magnolia wasn't in the list. So, am unsure of the ID.

Melierax Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 This is actually a Lesser Goldfinch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Posted April 21, 2019 Author Share Posted April 21, 2019 Ok, cool. I can see that now. I got the bill shape wrong. It just threw me off because they appeared larger than the other Lesser Goldfinches I have seen in the area. Thanks guys. Learn something new every day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
