Have a bird in the backyard I can't find in the books or through
Whatbird.com. It's between size of a Robin and Blue Jay, with distinct black
and white striping on the head. The beak is finch-like. When it flies, I can
see strong reddish brown patches that aren't visible when the wings are
closed.

It's been coming to the feeder and I have the camera at the ready in case he
shows up again.

Thanks for any help!

Barb
