2/3 Is the bird to the right of the pic a young Goldfinch or young Sisikin,I think the bird to the left is a juvvie Chaffinch,an adult was hovering close by

I have posted the pics on the Gallery,ie Siskin and Goldie,and a member said that the juvenile Goldie was a Juv Greenfinch.I did wonder,but there were no adult Greenfinches to be seen.So could he be a Greenfinch,and not a Goldfinch.confused!!!!
Sorry,i have just re-read,yes,Greenfinch,not Goldfinch.Put it down to Senior moments and so many youngsters around.
Thanks again.
