As you can observe from these images below, Bullfinch are quite fond of Willow Seeds. In fact at this time of year they spend most of their time gorging themselves on these seeds.
Not much notice was taken of me by them, but occasionally they would call to each other.
I photographed this pair of Bullfinch this week at one location.
They then moved to a tall dense blossom tree where I couldn't get to see them at all.

When you can get a clear shot at them they are beautiful birds.
The male stands out with the brighter colours, but the female has a more subtle colouring.

Yes you are right, a very beautiful bird. They certainly were stuffing themselves Roy
ReplyDeleteThanks Margaret.
DeleteBeautiful birds - but not the kind you want feasting on the blossom of your fruit trees!
