Subject: Molting (or diseased?) Male House Finch - Burke

Among the current backyard birds (finches, sparrows, juncos, jays,
chickadees, cardinals), I’ve been seeing a male house finch with large white
cheek patches and cap – photos attached.  Not sure if this might indicate
molting or perhaps disease.

Burke, VA
