Observations
First documented observation: 2019-09-22 at the Luppmen. Most recent observation: 2026-05-26 in Switzerland.Description
Classification: Genus Carduelis (Carduelis); Subfamily Carduelinae (Carduelinae); Family Fringillidae (Fringillidae)General: One of the more colorful birds in our area, but fairly shy and skittish, so you don't see them much. Supposedly a bit smaller than a sparrow or a great tit, but to me they look bigger and heavier?
General: Well hidden in the tree branches; at thistles or sunflowers.
General: Deutschland: Brut-, Jahres-, Zugvogel, Wintergast
Etymology: Name stammt angeblich vom Gesang: ein steigernder sti-ge-litt. Google AI sagt 'der Name "Stieglitz" stammt aus dem Slawischer (z.B. Polnisch szczvaieł, Tschechisch stehlik).'
Etymology: Google AI sagt, Distelfink 'bezeichnet einen Vogel, der sich von Distelsamen ernährt. ...was auch den lateinischen Namen Cardülis (von Carduus, Distel) begründet

Vocalisation
Song: General: Hectic sing-song, quite chaotic in feeding groups. But kept as songbird, so I guess more melodic when singing solo. A bit like a black cap warbler (Mönchsgrasmücke).Gesang hat eine Struktur (und ist langsamer als der Girlitz): Zuerst eine kleine Melodie hoch und runter; dann vielleicht ein Grünfink-Triller, dann 4 wiederholte Noten oder ein neues Melodiechen. (Oder kommen diese Elemente eher zufällig?)
Song:
Song: Mir wurde erst in St. Moritz in Juli 2021 bewusst wie ähnlich der Stieglitz wie ein Grünfink klingt - beide können lange Gesang mit Trillern und rauhen sinkenden Toenen singen, und ich habe Stieglitz v.a. durch dieses Stöhnen für Grünfink gehalten.
