Hi

Spied these birds the other days so I thought I'd take the camera to the same spot and sure enough they kept appearing. Had a lovely song too. Think I may have a pair of Siskins here or are they something else? Also saw Chaffinch, Greenfinch and a Goldfinch in the same spot.

No doubt on that ID. Siskin it is.

Yep, Siskin. We had three in the garden this week - a first (and likely last) for the year!
