But please all have a good read of the above. Next will be "yellowPoll's" mealies or not? lolB.Nieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15225730444814975429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-719332490282693598.post-90756397877913404652012-10-30T22:12:17.530+00:002012-10-30T22:12:17.530+00:00Unfortunately no Mealy's yet?
for id purposes:...Unfortunately no Mealy's yet?<br />for id purposes:<br />http://cromwellbottom.blogspot.co.uk/2012/03/making-mealy-out-of-it.html<br />A few pics from last winter to refresh the memory.<br />They are slightly bigger than lesser if sharing a feeder - but would appear very pale with much more white. Arctic would have thick white edges to primaries & tail feathers.<br />Sure we will get a couple soon.B.Nieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15225730444814975429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-719332490282693598.post-70379135955943851252012-10-30T21:37:00.182+00:002012-10-30T21:37:00.182+00:00Photo number 4 looks very pale ,,but now Ive got m...Photo number 4 looks very pale ,,but now Ive got my glasses on I not sure if its just the photo.??AndyChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01249179467388174873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-719332490282693598.post-41052169905436645962012-10-30T20:14:33.636+00:002012-10-30T20:14:33.636+00:00Thanks Bruce hopefully bumP into you on the reserv...Thanks Bruce hopefully bumP into you on the reserve sometime! <br /><br />Andy - do you mean the first pic?
