I was at the west end of the Cameron Station development this afternoon
(behind the school) when I spied a tree filled with finch. Based on the
notched tail and the flocking, I'd say Purple Finch (but, then again,
I've been wrong on this subject before and the pictures do not lend
themselves to detailed study). In one of my pictures I counted about 50
birds.
The first two pictures at:

BTW, I also have the White-fronted Goose pictures on this website, now.
