Can anyone help me with identifying this bird?  Attaching picture.  It is
about the size of a purple finch, but all over snow-white except for dark
patch on head like a goldfinch (but bigger than a goldfinch), dark stripes
on upper breast, a few mottled dark patches on body and wings.  Deep V tail.
 Bill similar in size and color to purple finch.  Quite aggressive at the
feeder.  Albino?  Visitor from afar?   

P.S. Picture taken at feeder in West Granby, Connecticut, 10/31/07, at 11:30
a.m.

Unfortunately, you can't attach a picture to a posting to the List.  To prevent
virus attacks through the ListServ, the software is set to reject attachments.

If Norma can post the picture on a personal website, she's welcome to post the
URL address where it can be viewed.

Any comments on what she might have seen?
