    The lovely greenfinch has perhaps the most boring Latin name given to any bird. Chloris chloris means 'green green'. #birdspic.twitter.com/5WApdHNW5n

        The common name in Spanish is «verderón», an augmentative of green.

        That’s interesting Fran. In the UK, numbers have fallen in recent years. Is the same true in Spain?

        On this occasion yes! Some are greener than others. 🤔 Perhaps I need to have a word with their agent...

        😆 Doesn’t seem to affect your ability to take great photos! Somehow I missed your recent photos Chris. Love the hummingbird and the margay. Great! 😁
