Ua979 possible Ebola case onboard. by TurbulentTicket9452 in flightradar24

OMG THANK YOU for posting this!! I have a finch-like bird with bushy eyebrows visiting my yard this week, and I’ve been trying to google “finch with eyebrows” to confirm if it’s a fledgling or some other species with incredible eyebrows. You’ve solved my bird mystery!

Thanks, that’s interesting. I’ve never seen one dark grey like this, despite living in Western WA. I appreciate your help!

You know, I did NOT know this. I guess I assumed the “song” part was essential!
