ππ Eurasian Chaffinch (Fringilla coelebs) The male Eurasian Chaffinch is colourful, with a blue-grey cap, rust-red breast, and prominent white wing bars. The female is duller brown/grey but shares the white wing markings. It is widespread across Europe, Northwest Africa, and Western Asia, favouring woodland, parks, and gardens. They are social outside the breeding season, forming flocks. Males have a loud, distinctive song. Eleven subspecies are currently recognised. 2.5 Flash (Edited) Conservation status: Least Concern (IUCN 3.1) Fun fact: Male Chaffinches have regional dialects in their song! Studies have shown slight differences in the typical song's final "flourish" depending on where in the country (or continent) the bird lives. π·: Photo by Drosera74 via Pixabay https://pixabay.com/photos/chaffinch-bird-finch-nature-9825010/ WUNE
