Hi Holly,

House Finch would be orders of magnitude more likely. This past winter was not an invasion year for Purple Finches in northern Florida, and the latest date for one in Florida is 14 May.

As far as a potential escapee, that too is unlikely since it is illegal to posess a Purple Finch.


Best regards,
