There have been several small birds of various colors and markings
visiting the feeder of late. I believe they are some sort of finches.
Perhaps someone with better knowledge can help me ID them as I
get reasonable captures please.

This hes been heavily cropped.

There are a few different species of Goldfinch in the US. This one appears to be the American Goldfinch (male). There are also the Lesser and Lawrence's goldfinch. The American is the most striking in color.
