It isn't very often that you can get to see these two finches side by side for comparison. The top bird is a male house finch, and the one on the bottom is the male purple finch. The purple finch has much more red coloring, especially the whole head.
The purple finch female has a streaked face pattern.
While the female house finch has a bland face.
The pine siskin has streaks but a sharply pointed bill, and usually a yellow patch in the wing.
Lovely to look at is this white-breasted nuthatch.
