Dear all

Can anybody identify this bird. It was feeding on Niger seed in our back garden in Sussex.

Many thanks 

Joris

Sorry the above is incomplete. I am not sure how to add a photo.

My neighbour who also saw the bird would vouch that our bird had a large strong beak. It was the first thing she said when we chatted about our unusual sighting.
