I think this is Cassin’s Finch. Im using a guidebook to try and identify the birds I see as opposed to searching the internet.
Sorry for small photo, 210mm lens just isnt quite enough.

Thanks for the rec. I'll look into that one. I have iNaturalist but it's hit or miss on stuff.
Oh yeah i have INaturalist also. But I normally use that for plants and bugs.
That Merlin app looks to be great for birding. I really appreciate that rec. even has the ability to log my findings, and more.
No problem! Happy Birding!
