What bird did I see?

Oregon, valley floor, looked like a goldfinch but had a red-pink head. Any ideas?

House finch or purple finch?

Here’s the Cassin’s finch, too.

Alas, no. Bright yellow body, black wings with some white (hard to see at the distance) and a red head.

Ahhh, now I think I have the culprit! The male western tanager!

Here’s some more about them.

Right you are! Thanks!

You’re welcome. I once got to see a flock of them frolicking about in a holly bush. Being that I was just a few miles from downtown Seattle, it was quite a treat.
