SISKIN (juv) // CARDUELIS SPINUS (12cm)
CHARMING well marked little finch, juvenile has mainly streaked grey-brown plumage that is palest on the head and underparts; the wing and tail patterns are similar to those of adult birds. It utters whistling or twittering, disyllabic calls, and is associated mainly with conifer woodlands, most head towards Scotland in the summer, so probable easiest to find during the winter months, when it searches for seeds of leafless alder and birch trees.
