Very distinct from the red House Finch and Purple Finch. Has the same confidence though -- not disturbed by much, and certainly not by me! A first sighting is very exciting, because it doesn’t happen very often. Generally, I have the same cast of regulars.
In the fourth the way the bird has its head is slightly equine.

including in Finland. Here they are called urpiainen and Urpiainen is also a surname.
Ice Swimmer says
A feisty little dinosaur.
