We pretty much only see these in Winter. Not so many this year as in other recent winters. Hopefully just one of those random population swings ...?

Ha! Has a Lesser on my feeder today and was thinking, I have not had so many this year so maybe there’s not been much movement this year generally?

A beautiful shot Ann. They're lovely little birds, and you've captured that well in this perfectly exposed and well detailed image.
