Redpoll in deep snow (Acanthis flammea)

We had huge flocks of Redpolls and Siskins but then they all disappeared. Now both species have begun to visit the garden in small numbers.

So far this winter, I've only seen flocks of them zipping past when I'm out walking. Still waiting for this year's close-up opportunity. This shot is so cool, peeking up from deep snow :D
