Five birders took a trip to Nile, WA on April 22, to the home of some
friends who have a wonderful yard with lots of feeders and birds. We
observed a strangely colored Cassin's Finch. Its head was neon orange, yet
there was still some pink/red coloration present. Certainly an interesting
individual.
