Hi All

I'm wondering whether either/both of these are Mealy Redpolls? Photo 1 and photos 2-4 are separate birds (photo 4 shows a nice comparison with a Lesser Redpoll).

They were in amongst 10 or so Lesser Redpolls which were significantly browner but I know Lesser Redpolls can show "bleached" plumage at this time of year.

Thanks
