Chaffinch, Fringilla coelebs
The male Chaffinch is distinctively coloured, especially in spring when
the dull outer edges of his feathers wear away to reveal the striking
blue head and pink breast. In all plumages though, Chaffinches are easily
told by their unique combination of two broad white wing bars and obvious
white outer tail feathers.
Breeds in woodlands, parks, gardens and hedgerows. Winters in gardens and
farmland, especially stubble fields.
The main sources of food for chaffinches are buds, berries and seeds. Beech
mast is one of their favourite sources of food in autumn and winter.
Chaffinches build neat round nests, using moss, lichen, wool, hair and
feathers. The most common place to see them nesting is in the fork of a
tree or a bush, where they produce typically four to six grey eggs tinged
with pink and covered in brown blotches.
Chaffinches are regular visitors to bird tables and hanging feeders,
sometimes becoming so tame that they will continue feeding while you sit
and watch them from close by.
