I do see the odd one with redpoll but I haven't seen them in quite a while... I am off to find a kingfisher, well that has probably jinxed it :laugh:

Hamburg is full of them but I live in a small town across the state line in Schleswig - Holstein (about 20 km from the Hamburg harbour) where they rarely appear or are very choosy what side of town they like. My oldest daughter sees them very often in the park up the hill but we both live down in a wooded hollow where the fields start and there are never any here.
