Hi Brian,

This is a female Purple Finch, in which I think this kind of conjunctivitis
is more common.

Best birding,

Stefan

This bird has now visited my feeder station now for the last 4 days. I
believe it’s a female Rose-breasted Grosbeak from the pattern on the chest.
However, I’ve never known them to have conjunctivitis like House Finches.
Either way, I’ll be cleaning these feeders today.
