Siskin - Carduelis spinus

Up until the last 12 months I had barely ever seen Siskin around the village, but during last summer/autumn we had them several times in the garden and again this spring. Usually they are up in the birch trees, but this male dropped down to take some sunflower hearts, until it was chased off by the blue tits. A very smart bird.
