Amongst the chaffinch flock a Hawfinch !

First days of snow, just on the mountain tops.

A couple of Bramlings also flying with the Chaffinches.

A Siskin.

Snow started to fall on the 16th.

Brambling under the feeder.

Marsh tit.

Brambling ON the feeder.

Don’t know which one of us was more surprised, I was taking pictures at the door, and this blue tit flew up and was searching for insects.

Then HE/SHE saw ME !!

in the first pic you can still see the little bits of snow on its head.

Robin and Skyrocket Great Tit.
