They look almost tropical in their bright plumage (male) although they haven't got the most tuneful of songs 
I now realise that not many people get to see these birds because they are so "shy".... mine aren't at all shy! in fact they fight with the greenfinches and other birds for the best bird seed.
I wondered whether other people had many in their gardens? or am I just VERY, VERY LUCKY! |
Yes-you are VERY VERY LUCKY and I'm VERY VERY ENVIOUS!
