Juvenile European Greenfinch ( Carduelis chloris ) - Keeping alert !!
This bird and others in its flock have to be extremely wary as theres a male sparrowhawk about !!
1 of my favourite little birds their feisty ,beautiful just a joy to see. Even the youngsters have attitude !!
Greenfinch populations declined during the late 1970s and early 1980s, but increased dramatically during the 1990s. A recent decline in numbers has been linked to an outbreak of trichomonosis, a parasite-induced disease which prevents the birds from feeding properly.
