Speaking of which can any #bird watchers help me identify this bird? It may be the same yellow bird in the all sky camera. A noisy group of them were living in a pile of rocks next to the telescope when I took this picture on Nov 3rd.

This is in the foothills of the Chilean Andes inland from La Serena. Lat: -30.24 Long:-70.748 at 2627 meters.

I couldn't figure out whether it was a: Greenish Yellow-Finch, Greater Yellow-Finch, Bright Rumped Yellow Finch, or Puna Yellow-Finch.
