This selection of images were taken on the 8th and 9th at the Lodge RSPB, my Dad and I stopped in after the Fudge duck hoping to connect with a Mealy Redpoll, I then spent the Saturday morning there. At least 4 individual Mealies were seen alongside a good number of Lesser's. The Siskins were in good numbers, trilling away, some of the males were so colourful. On the both days just a couple of Brambling were seen, a lot more elusive than the other species.
