During the winter of 2019/2020 we have had an invasion of Pine grosbeaks in Uppsala (and large parts of Sweden). For my part, however, they have been absent - even though I know they were in my nearest forest, Lilla Djurgården... This day there were both sunlight and a flock of Pine grosbeaks in Eriksberg, one of Uppsala's neighborhoods. I was then given the benefit of spending a couple of hours with a part of the flock of Pine grosbeaks munching on berries of Swedish whitebeam, obviously a favorite food. This is probably a year-old male who is starting to get orange spots on the head and the chest.
