Hi klikes99 and a warm welcome to you from all the Staff and Moderators. It sure looks like a leucistic Goldfinch you have in that flock! You can read more about this condition in our Opus Dictionary: Dictionary G-L - BirdForum Opus

I'm sure you will enjoy it here and I look forward to hearing your news.

Certainly looking different. I can't tell on my screen if it's eyes are red though. I'd go with a Leucistic Goldfinch. It appears there is a shading of yellow on it's breast.

BTW, A warm welcome to you

It certainly looks really different, but doesn't look like it may have escaped from somewhere there are many variations of Goldfinch in the aviary trade but this doesn't look like one.I had an individual visit the bird table that was a lot paler than the standard Goldfinch which matched a cage bird variant but could have just.been an unusual natural vatiant.
