this poor little fella has been at my feeder for several days now, he must have got into a fight.

Jeff, looks like that poor guy has Avian Pox. Seems to affect finches mostly. Seems to make the rounds every so often. It is usually seen on the eyes or feet. Very sad to see. But between the hawks or cats getting them usually fairly quickly and keeping a clean feeding area it never seems to spread too badly.
