Lakeside redpoll fest!

A quick trip to lakeside eastleigh today produce a few large groups of lesser redpoll with a few siskin and goldfinch in with them. Most of the redpoll were 'lessers':But some seemd very light coloured so may have been mealys, comments welcome:Dreadful photos I know but the whole group were very flighty.

There were 2 VERY tame greylags there aswell. how tame they were is demonstrated by this full frame shot:Never really bothered with a pic of a mallard before so here is one: Started to rain so we came home, will try get back there tomorrow for some better pics of the possible mealys!
