Spot the Difference - Green Bird Edition

SashaQ writes: Recently when birdwatching I spotted a siskin and a greenfinch sharing a birdfeeder. A good opportunity to 'spot the difference'. Both birds are greenish in colour, with yellow stripes on their wings. However, seen side by side, the difference in size is clear - the greenfinch is much bigger. The siskin is paler and its plumage is more speckled.
