Lesser Goldfinch (0466)

White Rock, NM

Spinus psaltria
This male Lesser Goldfinch looks like he is mostly done with molting, and appears to be
one of the Western race of Lessers (with a greenish back instead of the black back).
In this region of the Rockies, we get both races, and all possible admixtures of the two.
This fellow is getting a drink from the waterfall.
