A "Southern" Hoary Redpoll (exilipes)
is still coming to my nyger feeders in Toronto. Hoary Redpoll is
paler overall than Common Redpoll and has a contrasting white rump.

Back of Common Redpoll (left) is much
browner than Hoary above. More lightly marked flank streaks and
stubbier more obtuse-shaped bill than Common Redpoll are features of
a Hoary. Toronto on 5 February 2013. |

Hoary Redpoll has very lightly marked to
immaculate undertail coverts. This Hoary has one very narrow streak
on the undertail coverts. Toronto on 5 February 2013. |
