Description
Even with its colorful breast feathers, the eurasian Bullfinch is still easy to miss, unless the small bird is whistling its soft plaintive calls. The small finch prefers areas with established trees like woodlands, parks, and orchards where the bird quietly feeds on fruit and flower buds. Occasionally, the bird is a pest of fruit crops.
