Title: Goldfinch or Nuthatch?
Post by: blindthief on April 15, 2009, 04:23:59 PM

I snapped this pic of this young one shortly after his (or her) brush with a window and was unsure of the type. At first I thought American Goldfinch, but the slender beak looks more like a Nuthatch.

Your photo is of a Golden-crowned Kinglet.
