Charlie Spencer Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 The out-of-focus branches in front of the bird are giving the impression of colors that aren't actually there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcon2009 Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 I agree with goldfinch; while it does appear to have some rufous coloration on the nape, that would just be the lighting and branches in the foreground as Charlie Spencer mentioned.
