birds of Siberia - brambling

The brambling (Fringilla montifringilla) is a small passerine bird in the finch family Fringillidae
This bird just had a chance to watch only once. Initially, it seemed to me that this is a finch. If no season and a good opportunity to observe, I would not be sure. It was in the year 2013 in December. The bird hopped from branch to branch arborvitae growing next to the house every now and then hiding inside. I watched him closely, ie. approximately 3m. for at least 5 minutes. Siberia is its breeding territory.
