Redpoll in garden

[solway cropper]

I watched a redpoll completely devour a dandelion seed head on the front lawn this morning. It's the first one I've seen for donkey's years and I had to get the bird book out to make sure. We get all the usual finches here but I was dead chuffed to see this little lady.

Great idea,I'll tell everyone I'm leaving the dandelions for the Redpolls then,another gardening job done without even going outside.
