Common redpoll

Also around the FWG were some redpolls, which Jeewa managed to photograph. These birds have been numerous all winter around the city, though not, alas at the FWG, where we have seen only small flocks occasionally. In contrast, my feeder at home has been visited daily by increasing numbers of these birds all winter long. Even now they are still coming in good sized flocks, but I know that soon enough they will depart northward. It will be sad to see them go, but this coming winter will bring more of these pretty visitors, although whether in small numbers or in large flocks as this year, we'll have to wait and see.
