Three lovely images, captions and narrative ... does the word bindi means vermilion mark applied by women in India ...! ... is it the common name of Redpoll ... !
Wonderful work, Ann ... tfs ...
 
so beautiful, Ann, normally this time of the year I take a day off to go higher up in the mountains where the redpolls are relatively common, probably won't see them this year. but at least I can look at your lovely photo, many tfs!!!
