Hello all, I am wondering if anyone can help. A mate of mine was recently in Shanghai and saw what he thought were a pair of Greenfinches near his balcony. What he sent me is copied below: " I just looked out of the kitchen window and saw what I thought were a pair of Greenfinches, olive green in colour a finches beak but had a white beard and a white crest, they were acting as a pair but the markings were the same and only a small difference in size between them. It’s not one I’m familiar with. Any idea’s?" I sent him a photo of a greenfinch with white markings on throat and head, but he insists that it was not just a white patch on the head, it was definitely a "crest". Can anyone help ?? Regards Ray |
