Passin' through ~ Male Common or Hoary Redpoll??

This year saw higher numbers of redpolls in the yard traveling with pine siskins and goldfinches. We couldn't keep the thistle feeders full enough.

** Update ** I am told by my shootin' buddy Fisher that this may be a Hoary Redpoll not a Common Redpoll as I believed it to be. Whoever he is, I'm glad he stopped by!


other sizes: small medium original auto

Based on bill size and shape, I'd have to say Common, but it sure gets your attention.

Definetly...maybe...possibly a male Hoary Redpoll...any other opinions out there. It sure looks like one.
