Redpolls

Each year at the end of February or early March the redpolls return to the yard and feast on the nyger seed in the vertical feeder.  Here's a photoshoot of this year's arrivals.

Taking up positions on the feeder - "Move over, I'm coming in!"



The staging area.






Coming in for a landing ...



"Hey, what's going on down there?"



Great time for a 'snow bath'.



Just sitting here looking pretty.



"Ha-ha, I have the feeder to myself!"







Pretty redpoll in flight.
