I did, I did think it.

But I didn't. Didn't see it.

I've never seen a house finch so I was confused by this Purple finch in a rather uncommon yellow-orange morph or something. But as soon as someone (uhh, several people) on a local birdwatching page pointed out my error, it seemed obvious.

So this morning's Turnbuckle Portrait has an American goldfinch and a Purple finch.
