A Stranger's Visit

In the past when I saw a female Purple Finch, it was mostly brown with a prominent eyebrow.

"I am a female Purple Finch.  I have a white eyebrow."




But the other day I saw a far more whitish bird.  After checking with a bird book, this new hybrid does not have the eyebrow or other characteristics of Purple Finch.  So who is this? 

"Hi, who am I?  I came here with my friend finches for the first time."



"Your roasted sunflower seeds are yummy."
 
 
After reading the bird book thoroughly and checking on the internet further, I have no idea about this new one at this moment.   Some kind of hybrid....  This will be a homework for me.
