There's  several of these little birds in my mum's  garden in Ireland 
Can anyone identify  them 
In London. Keen but lazy.

    Siskin.  :)
    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    It might be a Siskin but l'm not 100% certain.

    I prefer it when we have to guess from B's descriptions :(
    Tradition is just peer pressure from dead people

    Not too common down your way @B3. Much commoner with @Fairygirl
    How can you lie there and think of England
    When you don't even know who's in the team

    S.Yorkshire/Derbyshire border

    We used to get them regularly in the garden round the corner. Only had a few visits in this one, but I see them along the lanes up near the farm, so there's still some around. Lovely wee things  :)

    Not in my garden.  In Ireland. My mum's  garden  . It's  full of all kinds we don't  see in London.

    Siskin. They seem to hang out with the goldfinches. Love shelled sunflower seeds.

    Loads of the here in Derbyshire Dales. Commoner than goldfinches.
    Apophthegm -  a big word for a small thought.
    If you live in Derbyshire, as I do.
