Found a group of 10+ redpoll this morning.
Any birders help with distiguishing lesser vs common from these photos and sound recording?

To counteract the grey drizzle of today. Here's a couple of pics from a sunny morning earlier in the week. I've been hearing siskins about quite a bit recently but mostly up high and too far off for a photo. But had a small group (~6) feeding on alder-cones (?? is that right) near the river that allowed me to watch from closer. Seem to spend as much time upsidedown as the right way up, and constantly chittering away within the group.

@peachfront they are impressively big when they come close
