Hi, my name is Richard and I live in Camrose, Alberta. I just restarted into finches and have some beautiful gouldian ones and some society ones. I have one very interesting colour that I’m not sure if it is a sf dilute or an Australian dilute. It won’t let me upload a picture but it has pale green wing with a silver head and side feathers and a purple chest. Would like some feedback from the people on the forum!

Hi and Welcome to the Forum Richard.
I don't think you have Australian recessive Dilute backs in Canada. It is most likely a SF Euro black headed cock bird where the black head is diluted to many shades from silver to charcoal grey. :wave:

Welcome to the forum. If you go through some of the posts on here, under Gouldian finch, you will see pictures that may confirm what Craig has said.
