Chaffinch - Fringilla coelebs
The Chaffinch - Fringilla coelebs - is one of the most abundant birds in Britain with more than 6 million pairs breeding per year. This, the male, is more colourful than the female which has a brown back and greyish breast but they both have the white flashes on their wings. Feeding mainly on seeds and insects outside the breeding season, they will forage for caterpillars and other juicy creatures to feed their young. It is also known as the Bachelor Finch because the males spend winters near to their breeding territories whilst the females migrate further south. Fringilla means Finch whilst coelebs means unmarried or single. This one was seen at Carr Mill Dam, St Helens, Merseyside,
