Looks like a molting goldfinch, definitely not a western kingbird...no matter what it is, it is a great shot.

Can't help with the I.D., but its a pretty shot.

I agree with the rest, male American goldfinch in winter plumage. Nice shot.
Ruth Voorhis07-Oct-2010 02:18
Looks like a female goldfinch to me. (?)

I agree - a winter or immature male goldfinch, not a Lesser Goldfinch. Lessers don't have the white underneath just before the tail. Very nice shot, Vern.

I'll go with Jack. Looks like a goldfinch. Definitely not a Western Kingbird

Looks like a typical male Goldfinch that is losing it's summer colors.
