150126 OM1ii Millennium Fields 1 female Siskin About 20 Redpoll 1st photo is best if a bad lot so "Here are some I did earlier" (2024 didn't get the Blue Peter badge either!) #York #birding #northyorksbirds #birds #ukbirding Man told me he'd seen 14 Cormorants Fulford side by Blue Bridge
Today's best shot of very high and distant Redpolls. Sore neck and shoulder are making life a bit difficult if birds are high in the trees. At least the distinctive red head is clearly obvious. Uncropped from 2 years ago, much more cooperative. Light speckled chest, pale abdomen and a little bit of the red head visible One of my favourite Redpoll images, in fact I have several of this delightful little poser who just sat and gazed casually around, feathers fluffed up againstthe cold. Red chest, bright red head, pale abdomen. There's a seed in his beak. 2 years ago 3rd oldy but goody and 3 birds swinging on fine twigs as they feed on the seeds

120126 No camera of course but a sight seeing visitor from somewhere, maybe Harewood House, soaring high above me on Broadway at 12.30. Gorgeous Red Kite. #York #yorkbirding #northyorksbirds #ukbirding #birds

080126 OM1ii Walmgate Stray #York #yorkbirding #ukbirding #ukwildlife #northyorksbirds #wildlifephotography #uknaturalists #birds I asked the Tiny Terrier Tyrant which way she wanted to go walkies so back to look for Redwings and not Siskin. Not sure about bird 4.
The local Pied Wagtail is back after a 2 year absence. It patrols several streets, this shot is from across the road, so quite distant. Robin back on the Stray, this time sitting beside the ditch, again very fluffed up against the cold. Quite a few Redwings again today and this one, high at the top of the bush has a berry in its beak. The pale eyebrow and the red under the wing are clearly visible. This bird was a bit closer and just sat staring into space. I'm not certain if it IS a Redwing, the eyebrow doesn't seem light enough and I can see no trace of red.

A large mixed flock of Goldfinch & Long Tail Tits (apologies for awful pics) and Siskin. Not sure how many. Possibly were in Danesmead wood this morning but didn't have the camera.

111225 Millennium Fields OM1ii #york #OMSystems #yorkbirding #wildlifephotography #ukbirds #northyorksbirds #naturephotography These are the closest Siskins I've seen so far this winter. Not sure how many, maybe 10. They were a bit more cooperative than the Tree Mouse!
CARDUELIS SPINUS. 12cms long. A Finch. Male has yellow chest and a black patch on his head. Light coloured beak. Female more subdued in colour. Her chest is very pale brown with darker streaks. Male from the side. Yellow and black wing bars visible, a yellow streak below his black head patch. Tiny Tree Creeper, also known as Tree Mouse. Feeds by running upwards around the tree. VERY fast moving. Brown wings, beige chest abdomen. Long, slightly down curved bill for picking tiny insects out of the tree bark.
