The bird did turn slightly one time when it picked up one seed from the feeder. I did get a quick view of the front part of it's left wing at that time and did note white there. But it wasn't like I could discern that it was a white bar on the wing. The bird turned quickly back facing me again. Unfortunately I decided at that point to go upstairs to get a field guide and look it up. When I came back downstairs it was gone. Had I been thinking - I would have kept watching it until it left and perhaps been able to see more of it.
