 olive green bird NEW

Hi Barbara, if you could describe any other markings it be very helpful. If the wings were black with a white wing bar, then it would be an American Goldfinch and most likely a female. Other than this idea, I would need more information, ie, what was it doing, what was it eating, where was it sitting, wing color and markings, flight behavior; anything you can think of would help.

You can also go online and try to ID it yourself by typing a description into your search bar: "picture of 3", olive green bird" or go to birding sites:
