new kind food?

Redpoll is enyoing its meal...and two more came..

All the seeds are eaten, one pigeon is searching the remainders.

Thanks, Robin, for the nice sequence of pictures! These pigeons sure can clean out the feeder fast.

13:06, This tit fells right at home and stays at the feeder a long time.

Look, how clever she is holding the seed between her feet - to eat it!

Full house of pretty birds! Please, can somebody name the yellow bird - in english and estonian ?

Seems to be a real good question for Caysa in Pigs forum. Maybe it is a greenfinch, latin name: Chloris chloris, estonian I don't know sorry.

In estonian is rohevint.

Yes, greenfinch is right. It only seems to be yellow because of the sun.

In estonia it is "rohevint"
About greenfinch - It happened when I was a teenager more. I live right downtown, but we have a green yard. It was a very cold winter and we decided to put bird feeder behind the window. Mostly visited by grate tits, blue tits and house sparrows.One day, however, a whole squad of greenfinches.
They wer in love with a sunflower seeds eaten by a large excitedly. But some of the birds were very greedy. They were also required to obtain these seeds which were between the cage and the window. So they stayed there and did not know the escape. The mother opened the window slightly, took the bird and then
let the flight.
This apart, we had the idea that they could be ringd. Mom went to Nature Museum and said that we could ring the birds. I do not remember exactly the number of rings , however, all was documented. It was a very fun and a great experience

Thank you, Robin, for the rohevint name! I looked so yellow so it is hard to believe that it is actually greenfinch!

11:47, Pigeons crashing all over and cleaning out the feeder! One minute later, they are all gone.

11:57, These fellows are noizy - what's there name?

they are jackdaws...in estonian: hakk

Hello

Thank you, AllyKass, I do not know the names of many birds, but like to know the estonian name!
