    Goldfinches unusual behaviour.

    There are 12+ goldfinches regularly visiting our garden. Yesterday morning after their breakfast of sunflower hearts and nyger seeds they all flew to the brick wall on the side of the opposite house and was pecking at the brickwork. Some of them did the same this morning. Is that normal?

    Common or Lesser Redpoll?

    We had these in the garden for about 4 weeks during February but could not decide if they were Common or Lesser Redpolls or both. Can anyone put us out of our misery?
