anyone know a lot about birds? I went to my family farm earlier today and there was a bird that I've never seen before. I'm curious if this new bird might eat grain or cause other problems. I couldn't figure out what it was from online bird identification programs because I couldn't search for certain parts of the bird.
picture related: the bird looked similar to this but with certain changes described below.
it had a small bit of red on it's head feather/fluff. the foot had 4 toes so it could grab a branch from front and back to wrap around. the wings feathers were yellow when looking from the inside but the outside was gray and white like the rest of the bird. it had a sharp beak about the length of it's head. lastly I'm close to the alberta and saskatchewan border but because this is the first time I've ever seen the bird it might not be native to this area.
it would be greatly appreciated if you could help me figure out if this bird species will cause problems or if it is fine to keep it around.
