Thanks to all for the ID of the red-eyed vireo. I have renamed it in my
file. :)

I believe that Jim's bird is a female American Goldfinch and Anita's bird
is a Red-eyed Vireo. I have enhanced Jim's image and attached it. I would
be interested in hearing from from Ellison and Arun on this.

I saw a strange finch-like bird in our yard this morning. It had yellow
markings so it wasn’t a house finch. It seemed to have a long yellow stripe
in its back, longer than the yellow splotch of a Yellow-Rumped Warbler. It
did not have the epaulettes of a goldfinch. This is two days after Matthew
and a cold air mass coming from the north, so I would expect unusual birds
to show up. So what is it?
