About Chaffinches and Redpolls: In today's puzzle called "Chaffinches and Redpolls," we feature a beautiful painting capturing the essence of these small and vibrant birds mentioned in the title. Each bird is meticulously painted, capturing the delicate details of their plumage with precision and care. The artist's skillful brushwork brings the chaffinches and redpolls to life, their vibrant colors standing out against the earthy tones of the surroundings. Chaffinches are commonly found throughout Europe, western Asia, and parts of North Africa. They are known for their striking plumage, with males displaying pink breasts and blue-grey crowns, while females exhibit more subtle brownish-gray coloring. Chaffinches prefer woodlands, parks, and gardens as habitats and feed mainly on seeds, buds, and insects. Their melodious song is a common sound in European woodlands, especially during the breeding season in spring. Redpolls inhabit northern regions of Europe, Asia, and North America. These small finches are characterized by their distinctive red crowns (in males) and nomadic tendencies, often moving in search of food, particularly during harsh winters. Redpolls primarily feed on seeds, especially those of birch and alder trees, as well as small insects. They are typically found in open habitats such as tundra, scrubland, and boreal forests, but they can also be seen in gardens and parks, especially during winter. // Image Credit: Ferdinand von Wright, Finnish National Gallery / Hannu Aaltonen
