Walking my dogs on the slopes of Slieveanorra, Co. Antrim last Tuesday afternoon, I was blessed with wonderful views of an absolutely gorgeous pair of Crossbills, in the early Spring sunshine.
I'd seen breeding pairs before in Aviaries, up in Elgin, Aberdeenshire, but had never been lucky enough to see them in the wild, until now.
Surely these must be the most attractive Finches we have here?
How common & widespread are they in Ulster?
Cheers
