Welcome to spring!
Redpolls were showing well today, feeding on the ground and allowing quite close approach. There is a small flock of 4 Siskins and 2 Redpolls which seem to stay apart from the other finches.
Deciding whether or not you have a Common Redpoll in a flock of Lessers is not always easy! There were two or three birds today which looked "mealy" to me, including the bird in the foreground of these two photos, but it's hard to be sure. If anybody has an opinion on these birds, please let me know.
