The Greenfinch, Carduelis chloris, is a small passerine bird in the finch family Fringillidae. The Greenfinch is 14-16 cm in length, is mainly green, with a bright yellow in its wings and tail. The female however has a duller color pattern.

They can be found in gardens, woodland and farmland edges and outside the breeding season they can form large flocks. They feed on seeds, as is clearly visible on this picture. This picture was taken in our small garden.
