Hawfinch at the Ooijsche Graaf

Sometimes we ring at the Ooijsche Graaf together with Bram Ubbels. On 12 July we caught a juvenile Hawfinch. Hawfinches are seldom trapped at the Ooysche Graaf. This bird was the second this year and the third bird ever caught.






This a male. How can you see that?
 Have a look at the wing below. A male has blue fringes on the primaries.
