Todmorden 14th October

A semi-birder friend of mine spotted a group of six Goldcrests picking insects off a house front on Wellington Road. I've told him it was probably a family group from this summer's breeding, but I wonder if that is actually the case?

Could be a local family group, but it's a winter visitor from across the North Sea as well. Their unusual behaviour points to them possibly being a migrant group.
Occasionally I have come across almost hand-tame individuals in winter in garden.
