The photos of the common linnet, which are presented here, were taken in allotment gardens. Especially males in their breeding plumage look showy, with their chests blood-red. Outside the breeding season they are colored various shades of brown. They are a little smaller than sparrows. The bird’s body mass is almost 20 g, with a wingspan of little more than 20 cm.

I took several pictures of the common Linnet, which were a excuse for the reconstruction of the gallery, which is still waiting for better photos...
Last minute news-12/2021
Over the last few years, I took a few random photos of the Common Linnet. These photos and those taken on December 21 were the reason for the reconstruction of the gallery. This time the birds were feeding in groups. The herd consisted of 60 birds. Unfortunately, the herd was very skittish and nervous - the reason was a sparrowhawk, which tried his hunting strength several times in front of my eyes.
