safari website icon glitch

[mrgreeneyes]

can someone help me?
in safari on monterey, the icon for google.ca is the Facebook Icon, see in the screenshot https://share.cleanshot.com/GLWDwS
but when I go to other sites, the icon changes to the proper icon for that specific website.

It's a Safari bug. I had this happen a couple months back. Here's what I did to fix it:

1. Close Safari.
2. Open your terminal.
3. Run this command:

   open ~/Library/Safari/Favicon\ Cache

4. Finder will open. Delete the contents of the folder.
5. Browse sites and see that it redownloads the favicons and stores them correctly this time.
