Why these birds are called Redpolls

Another beautiful February day in Whitehorse, and a great time to get outdoors with the camera.  The redpolls have now figured out where the bird feeder is and they’re here by the dozens.  Here are a couple of them at the vertical feeder.

And this next photo is the one I like.  This little guy is tipping his head forward as if to say,

“See, this is why we are called Redpolls.”
