LATIN NAME
Pyrrhula pyrrhula

FAMILY
Finches (Fringillidae)

OVERVIEW
The male is unmistakable with his bright pinkish-red breast and cheeks, grey back, black cap and tail, and bright white rump. The flash of the rump in flight and the sad call note are usually the first signs of bullfinches being present. They feed voraciously of the buds of various trees in spring and were once a 'pest' of fruit crops.

WHERE TO SEE THEM
Woodlands, orchard and hedgerows. Best looked for at woodland edges - usually located by its mournful call.

WHEN TO SEE THEM
All year round

WHAT THEY EAT
Seeds, buds and insects (for young).

Filmed in March 2010 ...

  • Обалденно!

  • Cool!

  • EmPortugal existe destes pássaros, como os adquirir.

  • Once again excellent.

  • Super cool vid, my favorite birds! and their song is amazingly beautiful too.

  • Great Quality there, they are fascinating birds to look at, though they are usually quick and getting them on camera can be a little tricky (well for me it took at least 3 different sessions to get pictures) Sunflower Seeds and I even had one on those "fat ball" things at one time.

  • Bouvreuil pivoine, in french

    Beautiful birds
