Can anyone please identify this bird that I saw in Madera Canyon a couple of weeks ago? There were a few of them about, so I think they are quite common. Thanks.

also a Black-headed Grosbeak looks very much like your bird.

Thanks for the comment, Extirpate - and for the link. It certainly looks like the Grosbeak.
