The bird seems quite warm and quite buff but that might be just the photo."<br />I would go along with this as I was looking at some Winter Mealies in my books and frosty is a good description!<br />Never mind - the lessers are lovely anyway!<br />CEagleseagleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17516605991636426040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22777475.post-6285915494678335682011-12-12T10:30:57.095+00:002011-12-12T10:30:57.095+00:00anony - I've sent the pics to RSPB Rye Meads t...anony - I've sent the pics to RSPB Rye Meads the ringers have have a view... and awaiting there response<br /><br />possible Mealy.......... thanks for the commentThe Quacks of Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05165918541194607143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22777475.post-14664953004723053072011-12-11T20:14:57.325+00:002011-12-11T20:14:57.325+00:00anony - no. yes i must admit it does look paler......anony - no. yes i must admit it does look paler...... umThe Quacks of Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05165918541194607143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22777475.post-38352662665389257822011-12-11T18:02:07.518+00:002011-12-11T18:02:07.518+00:00Wonderful pictures of the Redpolls.Wonderful pictures of the Redpolls.oldcrow61https://www.blogger.com/profile/08037896874383359258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22777475.post-32813001690784103892011-12-11T16:57:05.532+00:002011-12-11T16:57:05.532+00:00Yep, nice images of the Redpolls and Sparrowhawk. ...Yep, nice images of the Redpolls and Sparrowhawk.
