Hey, can someone please help me identify this bird? Saw it in Yerevan, Armenia today. Google says it’s a desert sparrow, but according to Wiki they don’t live in Armenia. Halp!

I’m not a birder so I’m talking out my ass…but is Armenia on its migration path maybe?
According to this, they are not migrating… Weird. Maybe the little guy got lost? Bad GPS or something? :)
Haha maybe!! I’m pretty ignorant when it comes to birds
The shape of the beak actually looks like the finch family. I looked through common birds of Armenia in Merlin, and Pale Rockfinch seems like a possible choice.
Hope there are experienced birders from your area who can answer this confidently
