I was out at Oregon Ridge yesterday. It was overall a very nice day,  
with 61 species. Highlights included several black throated blue  
warblers. Flickers were in unusual abundance, with over 10 in the  
first 2 hours. The only questionable bird all day was one or two  
finches which were hiding in the some pines, and then i watched them  
fly into the open. The extent and the color of the red seemed unusual  
for house finches. Below are the two best views, if these are  
inadequate please respond and i can post alternate views. One  
particular bird had red on far down the chest and very little brown  
barring. 


Thanks Ben Weinstein
