Hi, I have a group (clutch)?? of these birds visiting my yard/woods right now. (Florida)

Looks like winter plumage goldfinch, but I thought they had pink bills....(?) Maybe a juvenile?

I'd agree with American Goldfinch

Thank you, I found last years photo and they match. I missed that one when I was trying to find out what it was.

Thanks everyone

From Sibley, pink in summer, greyish in winter. So it is as it should be ;-)
