I first thought they were all male house finches! But, I learned the difference! It is actually quite hard! I always look for the more buzzed head; house finches seem sleek to me!
I still have problems. Petersons guide says the purple finch looks like it's been covered/dipped in rasberry juice. And they don't have the brown streaks on their bellies. Just info for everyone else out there.
