Hi

Just joined today. Hope I am posting in the right area. Attached is a picture I took just after Christmas. I used my Oympus C740 on a tripod on full zoom (10x)

I have only seen these birds once - the weather was very cold - about minus 4 degrees centrigrade during the day.

My guess is they are yellowhammers, not siskins or serins. What do the experts think?
