I got a photo of a bird this morning at Delta Ponds that I can't ID. I don't see anything in my "Birds of Oregon" book. Seems I read somewhere about a type of finch that turns greyish with pinkish color on the sides of its head and throat. Now I can't find it. It does seem to have a beak like a finch. Would appreciate help with the ID.

Thanks to the great feedback, it is pretty much confirmed this is a male house finch! Also, I found the inforation I was looking for regarding house finch colors. Also, I found photos of house finches online that were the same.

This is from WIKIPEDIA - "Male coloration varies in intensity with the seasons[5] and is derived from the berries and fruits in its diet.[6] As a result, the colors range from pale straw-yellow through bright orange (both rare) to deep, intense red. Adult females have brown upperparts and streaked underparts."

Too bad I couldn't get a better image of it. Without the extreme zoom of the P900, I could never have got a shot. It was so far away I couldn't see it with my naked eye. I saw it fly in and land is the only reason I saw it. Even with the P900 I had to crop to get the bird at a decent size. As a result, the image is not all that great. But I was excited to see what I got and hope to get a positive ID.
