I only got a quick glimpse of this bird from quite a distance. Photos are cropped severely.

This was shot today in Willis, Texas - just north of Houston in the piney woods.

The bird is sitting in a Button Bush.

Purple Finch, female - that head pattern is characteristic

Oh my gosh. I would have never guessed that. Never seen a purple finch.

Thanks so much,
