I do not know if this will interest you, but I live on vicarage road opposite St Johns church, Irlam, and yesterday morning two small birds, about the size of sparrows,were on the side of my house, literally hanging on the vertical brickwork, the top of their heads were bright red, I could not make out any other markings before they flew off into one of the large trees in the church yard.
Many thanks for your comment and I'm sorry it's taken so long to reply. We don't usually get comments of this nature in this section of the website, so yours has gone unnoticed until now. The birds you describe sound like Redpolls which are not particularly common, but we do usually see a few each year. Thanks again for your report.
