The bullfinch nest is built by the female and constitutes mainly twigs and moss. Bullfinches often like to nest in bushes and shrubs, as well as woodland. There was a time when bullfinches commonly nested in orchards, but elimination by farmers and gardeners has led to a rapid decline of the species in these areas.
How many broods do bullfinches have?
Most pairs will attempt to raise two broods a year; some manage three. Though small flocks may form at feeding sites in the winter, studies have shown that birds fly to the site individually or in pairs.
Where do bullfinches migrate to?
This bird breeds across Europe and temperate Asia. It is mainly resident, but many northern birds migrate further south in the winter. Mixed woodland with some conifers is favoured for breeding, including parkland and gardens.
