Amazing colours

March 22, 2018 Örn Óskarsson
Krossnefur – Common Crossbill / Red Crossbill – Loxia curvirostra

This colourful male Crossbill was one of a group of five that visited our garden today. Its plumage is unusual with some amazing yellow and orange colours. This might actually be the most beautiful Common Crossbill in Iceland.
