Feasting

Feasting (Spinus spinus)

on birch seeds. Back in August and September I could reliably find Siskins (along with Blue and Great Tits, Tree Sparrows, Willow Warblers and Chiffchaffs) feasting - some on the catkins, some on insects, and some on a bit of both - in the the birches that line the main walkways around the cemetery.
