Diseased Bird: House finch eye closed
Additional images:
The eye is completely crusted over. Almost looks cancerous, but I presume conjunctivitis or avian pox.
I would like help in determining which.

Most likely Avian Pox. I had a bright red male House Finch last summer and the growth nearly covered his right eye and a circle around it. Worst I’ve seen. Yet, it hardly seemed to interfere with his life. Might be a good idea to carefully disinfect the feeder. Too bad I can’t post a pic. That option should be added to this platform’s architecture.
