Looks good against the blue sky. Another species that I've never encountered.

Not as much streaking on the breast as the House Finch. And, it may be hard to discern from this photo, but the Cassin's Finch is more fire brick red. The House Finch is more rosy. And, the beak is more "equilateral triangle", with little curve. The House Finch has a curved upper mandible.
