House Finch
Uploaded: February 28, 2012
This is a male house finch, which is easily confused with the purple finch, which is really reddish also. The difference is that the house finch has more red on the head and less distributed reddish tones in the rest of the body. Both are small, sparrow-sized birds. This was taken on an overcast winter morning in February in upstate New York.

Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed.
