Spotted a family of siskins around the bird feeder. Lovely to discover the name of a bird I had not been aware of before now. Whilst the chaffinches, blue tits, and sparrows played nicely with each other the feisty siskins fought between themselves over the plentiful food.
Such a stunning colour and markings though. I really liked them.

How lovely that you have seen them at Scargill for the first time, what a brilliant picture wish I could take such great shots. Living in the country we are lucky enough to have them in our garden, and we delight in them too, they are tamer than other birds and you can walk up to our feeder when they are there without bothering. Have a lovely weekend, I understand from the Prayer pointers that there is to be a wedding this weekend.
