There are quite many Arctic Redpolls this year also, so it seems like they are doing better, and are increasing in numbers. At least in our garden. 🙂

Last year we were graced with several redpolls at the feeder. This Arctic redpoll even popped around one day, but didn't stay.

Proper Redpoll identification has been breaking the brains of even the most experienced birders. I'm still not 100% sure this was an Arctic, but I trust the ones who guided me through the id aaaaand I want to keep it on my lifelist.

This beautiful little bird is called an Arctic Redpoll. 🤎 🖤 🤍 ❤️

The photographer is fantastic, and I've seen many of his other bird captures. However, I do not know the transliterated form of his name. I only know him as 乐金金 .

#Woodcock has the brightest #feathers ever measured https://www.birdguides.com/articles/woodcock-has-the-brightest-feathers-ever-measured/

How #woodcocks produce the most brilliant white #plumage patches among the #birds https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2022.12.09.519795v2

The reverse surface of the white #EurasianWoodcock fail feather tips reflected around 55% of light, as measured using #spectrophotometry. This is around five times brighter than #SnowyOwl and 10 times brighter than the feathers of #ArcticRedpoll, both known for their startling white plumage.
