Redpolls

A dozen or more redpolls (which ones?) have returned for their annual visit to well-stocked feeders in a garden in the Kilnhurst area of Todmorden.

Just wondered what was in the feeders to attract Redpolls? Might try it out in mine if you can let me know - thanks

My son says it's thistle seed (niger seed?) and the lady has a job to keep her feeders filled. She's on hand constantly with another bag of seed

We've found the same thing with Goldfinches, regularly up to 15 on our Nyger, costs a fortune! (but worth it)
