Great Spotted Woodpecker [större hackspett]

The woodpecker has found a clever way to feed himself, hasn't he? And I guess he feels safe behind bars, and that's why he let me come relatively close for once. Hedegärde, Uddevalla, on February 27, 2019.

European Goldfinch [steglits]

We hardly ever see goldfinches around here. This winter is an exception – some days there's been 20 or 30 in the birch trees next to our feeding station. But every time I show up with the camera they disappear. So this is not a good photo. But at least there's a goldfinch. Hedegärde, Uddevalla, on February 7, 2019.
