[Maine-birds] Re: Can You ID this bird Description?

Sounds similar to a rose-breasted grosbeak without the red V-chest???

My aunt sent this bird description. She's in Fairfax Virginia. Any ideas?

"Black back, white front, the white goes all the way around the tail area like a tiny white stripe, tail is fairly long

Larger than a Junco (which I thought it was because of the coloring), but smaller than a robin, more like a finch size

Has a seed eater bill, not a bug eater, and the bill is white against the black head

As for the white underside, the black goes  down mid-chest and then the white starts"
