		Both were presented to me by the late Professor Maury Meiklejohn, with the nerve-wracking enjoinder ‘I can see the rosefinch’s bill and wingbars, Ian, but you will have to help with the bunting.
		In 1992, when the Common Rosefinch, as it is now called, bred successfully at Flamborough Head, East Yorkshire and on the Suffolk coast, its addition to the regular breeding birds of Britain seemed imminent.
		Since the late 1970s, the number of British and Irish records has grown so noticeably in spring that this trend, and particularly the 1992 influx, are likely to be associated with the much-increased breeding population of southern Fenno-Scandia.

		We soon found three Azure Tits, Hume's Warbler and a fine male Common Rosefinch plus noisy Common Mynas and as we were about to leave, a pair of Brown Dippers on the nearby stream.
		The familiar sound of Common Cuckoo came through the mist, not a bird one normally associates with mountains.
		The excitement was because we had been overflown by two or possibly more Red-breasted Rosefinches, a bird of high and inaccessible mountains and one almost never seen.

		Someone suggested that the trees in the distance could have been where the Rosefinch had fled to, so – risking the dangerously-clinging Pirri Pirri burs – we went cross-country to investigate.
		Suddenly Tommy, the trip photographer, veered towards a lone bush so, thinking he was aiming his lens at the Rosefinch, all remaining 19 of us homed in on the same bush.
		The sight of all these common birds en masse more than made up for missing the rarer birds and, suitably impressed, we headed off to the Turkish restaurant in Morpeth for fish ’n’ chips (what else?).

	Carpodacus erythrinus
		The adult male is quite unmistakeable with his rich red head and breast but in other plumages Rosefinches just look streaky-brown.
		Their bodies and especially their bills are too big for them to be confused with Redpolls; in fact they look more like sparrows or buntings but they have a unique combination of streaky underparts, a staring eye in a plain face and two narrow pale wingbars.
		A very common bird in much of Poland and southern Finland, this bird is spreading westwards and has already reached Holland, Belgium and parts of northern France, though as yet in relatively small numbers.

		This island had various habitats; in more open areas we saw European Woodcock and Latham's Snipe; the woods were dripping with passerines and the undergrowth bursting with spring flowers.
		Both Oriental and Common Cuckoos were calling, Lanceolated Warblers sung from deep in the swampy shrubs; Ashy Minivet and Lesser Spotted Woodpecker appeared briefly in the woods and an Oriental (Crested) Honey Buzzard soared above.
		At our final meal we were joined by uncountable numbers of no-see-ums while in the background we could hear volleys of gunfire from the Chinese-Russian border, a mere 2 or 3 miles away.
