ID Help: Anatolian Finch: Crimson-winged or Mongolian Finch (1 Viewer)

Def. not a Mongolian due to pattern of upperparts, flank, tail lenght, straighter culmen, wing pattern and plump jizz. Darkish bill, pale eye ring, crown pattern and dark primary coverts and brightness of plumage would indicate younger male Crimson-winged Finch.

And what a picture! :t:
I myself missed this species cause I was too late for the chairlift, it was already closed: And I only cycled with all my luggage (including Laptop PC) 1700 metres up!
When I went down, my discbrakes caused a meltdown straight through my pack; luckily the charger for my maclight prevented to go all the way through.
Didn t struggle up again; I ran out of food.
