Today we had three Siskins on our bird feeders! Wow, beautiful birds and (sorry Sparrows, Magpies, Blackbirds, Jackdaws and Pigeons) a nice colourful change to see something pretty unusual now.

An attractive, green-and-yellow bird, look for the bright yellow barring on its black wings, and the black crown of the males- roughly long and with a wingspan of 12cm.
