Desperate to get an ID on this bird. A visitor to the UK perhaps, or a pet? (Somerset) Thanks in advance.

Bill and face markings, albeit pale red/orange look like it's just a former goldfinch. Was much wing left to fold out?

No, definitely not a goldfinch. But thanks!

No problem. As prev, can the wing be opened up to show that marking clearly?

Google lens suggests Canary but don't know how credible that is?
