    Peep show

    I keep telling other members how much I love pictures of birds peeking out from behind foliage, but it's not all that often I manage to take them. This Chaffinch obliged.

    Considering

    When I go up to our feeding stations I like to try and record what species are there each time. I generally start with the easy shots, such as the ones on the feeders. After that I concentrate on getting more natural shots, like this male Chaffinch in a tree. They often land on a branch before...

    Great tit or Chaffinch call? Spain

    Hi all, I'm currently annotating bird calls and songs from an olive grove in Madrid province, Spain. This recording is from December of 2020. All recordings were made automatically from a passive audio device, both species are common in the area. I was wondering if anyone is aware of any way...

    Hi everyone! First post from me & my feathered friends

    Hi all. Newbie here. I've recently moved to North Wales, having never had a garden before (at least, as an adult home owner & out in the country). I've built what I'm amused to call my "feeder array" from a mixture of scraps, with bought & scavenged feeders. I have fat balls, mealworm...

    I know these are common for many of you, but this is the first time this Connecticut boy has had the pleasure of spotting chaffies in the wild. Woo hoo, an oddly exciting lifer. :)

    Do you think he'll mind....

    ..... if I go and get some? At our Mause feeders, this cheeky Coal Tit, looked like he was sizing up the risk of being caught by the Chaffinch LOL. Saturday fun

    All quiet in the garden.

    It is now September. Autumn is now here according to the meteorologists and the garden is very quiet. Having reared their young, most of the birds seem to be taking time off to recuperate. Many of them are moulting, ready for the coming winter and consequently not looking their best. There is...

    The answer...

    .... is Chaffinch. Well done to JJ and Ove for getting this mini quiz right. And also to Ove who spotted my error. I gave you all a massive clue by including the scientific name in my upload <ooops> didn't mean to do that LOL. - Ove seems to have been the only one to see it!!! So this was the...

    Autumnal

    Trying to catch up on some of the pictures I did manage to get last year. This is a female Chaffinch who comes to the feeders at Craighall. The strange thing is, that while we have to top up the nuts there on every visit, they hardly ever touch mine at home.

    During the spring migration also the Chaffinches (Fringilla coelebs) stop on the poplars to eat the shoots, unlike the brambles they are more dynamic and often go to the ground.
