    1. Thanks Ananka
      The decease is the Papillomaviruses, it happened when they young, it doesn't harm it anyway. Although, some may it hurt psychology.

  12. Great studies of an often overlooked bird, Bob, which deserves this sort of attention as their plumage is really quite special. It's a pity about the legs on that first female. It's a condition that, until this year, I'd only seen on Chaffinches but this year we have a female Bullfinch visiting regularly which appears to have the same disease.

    Stay safe - - - Richard

  19. Hello Bob,
    Superb pictures of the finches, the males are magnificent with the bridal plumage. The most beautiful colors are not yet totally there!
    The paw gall is more and more present in Europe. This year has been less in my home, phew.
    I hope that you are well. I don't have much time left to visit the blogs, but I pass by from time to time.
    Your pictures are still beautiful.
