Dove guardare

Consigli sul campo

1. Listen for their song. Their distinctive wheezing song is often the first indication of their presence, especially during spring.
2. Check bird feeders. They are frequent visitors to feeders, particularly those offering sunflower seeds or nyjer seeds.
3. Look for yellow flashes in flight. The bright yellow patches on their wings and tail are very noticeable when they fly, even at a distance.
4. Observe flocks. Outside the breeding season, they often form noisy flocks, making them easier to spot.

Migrazione

Mostly resident in much of its range, particularly in Western and Southern Europe. Northern and Eastern European populations are partially migratory, moving south and west for the winter. Some altitudinal migration also occurs.
