...or maybe a bit of grey will be more your colour this weekend?
This week, our Wildlife Enquiries team have been inundated with queries about these beautiful birds - redwings and fieldfares. So if these birds are now as familiar to you as your usual robin and blackbird, you're not alone.
You see, they might be regular winter visitors, but as they can usually find enough food in the countryside to keep them going they don't really need to bother us humans in their search for juicy bites to eat. However, with the cold weather that's been circulating round the UK recently, these delightful birds have been quite literally flocking into gardens. Making them much more visible to everyone.
So this weekend, keep an eye out for both of these great-looking birds. It might just be your best chance to spot them before they start preparations for their journey back home.
Do let me know if you spot any fieldfares or redwings this weekend. Just leave me a comment below.

That's a shame you didn't have your camera to hand, Pollyanna, but it sounded like a a great experience nevertheless.
I have an Australian Oak right outside my bedroom window and managed to get a lovely close up of a Redwing, from about 4 feet away! It was very brave and sat for ages. Unfortunately I didn't have a camera to hand.
Hi matsalleh! Wow, 18 redwings? That must have been a lovely sight. Hope you get some fieldfares next :)
hello! We had a flock of about 18 redwings in a tree in a neighbouring garden on Sunday afternoon. It was really neat, and luckily they all stayed still long enough for me to look them up and find out what they were. If only they'd turned up a week earlier when we were counting birds....
Thanks everyone for your comments. Great to hear so many of you saw fieldfares and redwings this weekend - I didn't see any!
