I would like to know distinctive markings between house and purple finch. I
think all of mine are house finches but would like to be sure. Is there ONE
marking that tells them apart easily?.

Subject: [birdky] house finch v purple finch
The birds on my feeders that everyone around me has been calling purple
finches appear to me to be house finches based on wing markings. I have yet to
see anything i think is a purple finch. Is one more common that the other, or
just everyone who knows a little assumes they are all purple finches.
