One of the blessings of this Covid-winter has been the antics of a large flock of Common Redpolls who have been daily visitors for the last couple of months. When I take to feeders out every morning about daybreak, they are gathering in the tall trees, chattering away. Usually there are about fifty, sometimes double that – and once they decide to chow down, it’s wonderful chaos.
With the forecast of warm weather, I suspect this gang will be heading north in the next few days. Bon voyage!
Love these photos. Delightful birds!
