I noticed quite some variation in the red spot of E. rufomaculatus, but does this fall within the range? There's just a tiny spot of red visible...

Amstelveen, the Netherlands, yesterday.

The photos are a bit dark but it does look like Eriothrix rufomaculata. Smile The red side patches are usually more evident but in some individuals they can even be absent.
