Wow. I'd never seen "colly birds" before. Possibly that version is more common in British songbooks?

Well, the article says the word coally became obsolete, and calling was substituted. I think that would apply everywhere.

Super shot and what a pretty bird. Obviously a poser, as he has chosen a very photogenic perch to show to best advantage and you have framed him very well, too.

With so many brightly-coloured birds being shown here, it makes our little Chaffinch look rather dull, but you have caught him very nicely.
