Why is this house finch yellow?

I saw this house finch in CO today but noticed its head and breast wasn’t red like a typical male house finch anybody have a guess?

A Says Phoebe, Western Tanager, blue jay, and a belted kingfisher I saw today

All of these except the blue jay are new lifers (Ive seen them several times here) and my second flycatcher in Colorado besides the Western kingbird.

Finally got a clear image of a hummingbird in the wild!!!!!

I can’t freaking believe I got to see broad tailed hummingbirds in the wild but yet they won’t visit out feeder. These were in Colorado in Littleton.

This is in Angel Fire New Mexico from our mountain home at just over 10,000 feet Ring camera who caught an unusual visitor: a common raven. Just when I thought Clark’s Nutcrackers and Stellar’s Jays were the only corvids in the Rockies. I didn’t know these guys could thrive up there too.
