Saw this American Goldfinch having a breakfast snack at Makoshika State Park in Glendive MT. Taken 7/13/25. Originally had it marked as a tanager

That's an American goldfinch, isn't it?

Looks like a little cutie to me, but I'm not good at birds.

It is a male american goldfinch.

Yep, totally had it marked wrong from the get go and didn't even notice as I was copy pasting. Hoped to correct in time, but always appreciate corrections.

Yeah, I was blindly copying what I had saved before I realized I had marked it wrong from the get go. Been going back and changing all the different places I put it before I noticed. Hoped I got it corrected before anyone else saw, but appreciate the heads up
