Goldfinch (Carduelis carduelis)
It is a passeriforme of the same family as the cini canary. The goldfinch lives in parks, woods, gardens and fields of thistles (which it feeds on). It is widespread in Europe except in forested northern regions.
In Asia, up to Baikal, and throughout North Africa, its seed-based diet is also composed of insects and other invertebrates.
The goldfinch of the Jijel region is among the most sought after by bird catchers. This species is protected by ministerial decree dated January 17, 1995.
