The Common Redpoll is a small, arctic-breeding finch named for its distinctive red forehead patch. Males also have a pinkish wash on the breast.
Where to spot
Circumpolar in the Arctic and subarctic regions of North America, Europe, and Asia. Breeds in tundra and boreal forests, wintering south into temperate zones.
How to spot
Look for them feeding on birch or alder catkins. They are often found in flocks and can be quite acrobatic while feeding. Listen for their distinctive 'chup-chup-chup' call.
When to spot
Best observed during winter in temperate regions, when they descend from their northern breeding grounds. In summer, found in northern forests and tundra.

During irruptions, Common Redpolls can appear far south of their typical wintering grounds, driven by food shortages in their northern habitats.
