Carduelis flammea

Carduelis flammea, commonly known as the Common Redpoll, is a small finch species that inhabits various regions of Croatia, including forests, scrublands, and occasionally urban areas during winter.

Recognized for its subtle but striking plumage, especially in males with their crimson caps, the Common Redpoll is adept at foraging for seeds from birch and alder trees. These birds play a crucial role in seed dispersal and contribute to the ecological balance of their habitats.

Protecting diverse ecosystems where Carduelis flammea resides is essential for ensuring their survival and promoting biodiversity in Croatia.
