Is he ok?

I think this could be a chaffinch but please correct me if I am wrong. However, I am concerned that he/she has an issue with it's legs and claws. The legs looked unusual and could have something wrong, other than that the bird looks fine and was on the wing around this area which is a wildlife feeding station next to the visitor centre at Newlands Corner. Any ideas if there are any bird folk looking in?

I don't have a clue what sort of bird it is Vince, but when I first saw the thumbnail I thought it's feet and legs looked a bit odd. He's very cute, I do hope he's OK.

Could be a bullfinch. Regardless, it is a very charming image, one to make most off us smile. Hope the bird is okay.
