I saw a flock of 15 common redpolls on Eide Road at about 3:00pm today.
They were right at the beginning of Eide road on some bare trees next to
the 532 bridge.

I have some very blurry pictures of the birds but you can easily make out
that they are redpolls

One of the birds in the flock was quite a lot whiter than the rest of the
birds making me think it could be a Hoary redpoll. See this photo for
example, where you can compare the color of two birds:

Does anybody with more experience with redpolls tell me whether it could be
a Hoary Redpoll.
