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.
