"Red" finch. I can't tell if it's a House, Purple or Cassin's finch, but according to this site, that's a common dilemma.
Male black-headed grosbeak working it like a runway model!

I'm going to vote for house finch since it doesn't have a tufted crown, but wowzers, does that bird have a beak - must be Semitic. We had four evening grosbeak for about a week for the first time. I love their song. Snow in the forecast for the next four days - won't be listening to bird songs for a bit.
WoW~ those are some beautiful birds!! - I'm not good at keeping a feeder filled, so I've opted to not have one - but I really miss seeing all the pretty ones. T.
It's a purple finch - Cassin's finches have lighter under parts and barring on their breasts.
I love the grosbeaks - they're just too cool!
I would vote for purple, judging by his facial coloration :) Beautiful photos! :)
