Observation details

A single bird seen alongside Lesser Redpolls. The bird was slightly larger and clearly whiter and greyer. Virtually no streaking on the undertail coverts. The bill was too large for an Arctic type. Otherwise the bird had a bull neck and obvious white in its supercilluim. Three Mealy Redpolls reported from here yesterday. Photographed.
