Hey, we visited the rspb place at Abernethy forest yesterday. Looking through photos we can't work out what these birds are. Can anyone help? Best guess is a blackcap...
The colours are a bit blown out but I think the top bird is a juvenile Goldfinch and the lower one a Great Tit

Defo Great Tit for the lower bird. I was thinking juvenile Siskin for the top one, but I would go with TeeJay's id of Goldfinch.
Young Great Tit and blown out Chaffinch?
I think the beak is too delicate for chaffinch (or indeed greenfinch), so siskin or goldfinch for me.
The top one is a young goldfinch, it's too big to be a Siskin.
Kind regards
Jenny
