While driving I saw a large flock of small birds to the front of me.
I quickly decided to take a photograph.
When I expanded my photo, I found that the birds were Carduelis flammea.
I didn’t have my zoom lens with me, so it’s hard to make out in the photo, but the birds have a characteristic bright red patch on the forehead.
The group I saw was very large, probably comprised of over 200 birds.
