Lesser Goldfinch (Black-backed form) #7870

White Rock, NM

Carduelis psaltria

Here's another Lesser Goldfinch picture, of a male that fits better classified as a Black-backed form. Note there are relatively few mini-feathers on its back that are light in color, and the feathers below the eye are very dark, with a few light yellow feathers right at the lower eye border. This photo is for comparison with the one I posted yesterday, of the green-backed form.
