What type of bird is he?

Today a bird flew into our window and totally blacked out. I felt SO bad for the poor thing, as he was flat on his back but still breathing. I wasn't sure if he was dying or simply passed out. I sat and watched him for a bit, cheering him on to get better and fly away! After a few minutes, he perked right up, but walked over to our porch and made himself at home for an hour or so where he let me photograph him. ( I had a telephoto lens, though, as I couldn't get close!) He sat around and napped, but the dog eventually found him and barked, so he flew away. I was worried that he wouldn't be able to fly, but he seemed to glide away with ease! 


I will admit that I am NOT very bird-savvy. Does anyone know what type of bird he is? He has red on the back of his head, polka-dot feathers on his chest, a long beak, and large wings in relation to his body that are yellow on the inside. Whatever he is, there is no doubt that he is extremely cute!
