Can't see any white feathers. ..maybe dark feathers due to poor diet?

Its hard to get a good idea from that pic with the strong sun behind him. If he has paler pink patches on the head/neck/rump area he could be a light pied. If you show a pic in softer light it would be easier to tell. Pieds usually show at least some white feathers on the belly, wing flights or tail although on the head & neck on males any pied markings are at least partially overshadowed by the red.

Most likely a normal one. Pied finches usually have white feathers and your finch only has tiny white spots on the feathers not a whole white feather.
Have a nice day!
