Help needed to id this pretty rust-colored bird. I live in southeast Nebraska and I took this photo today.
Thanks,
Di
CLOSED: ID please
Common Crossbill a.k.a. Red Crossbill.
Unusual one to get visiting a bird feeder! Usually they stay strictly in conifer forests, eating the seeds in cones.

Forgot to say, the greeny-yellow bird below left is the same, except a female (the red one is a male).

Thanks Resin! We have many pine trees on our property so maybe they just wanted to try something new. They come every day... now I can call them by their names.
