Media notes
A Common Redpoll, with 5 others feeding on tundra grass seeds nearby.
Observation details
A flock of common redpolls was feeding on the tundra. There is now fresh snow cover. The grass grew very tall this year, so they have to jump to get at the seeds. A few birds have learned to flatten the tall grass by stepping on the base of the stalk, and getting at the seeds that way.
