Hi......Found a lovely set of linen placemats
with petitpoint of birds. They are named in
the language of the craftsperson, but I'd like
to be able to identify them in English. These
are the names on the mats - Fuglekonge, Gulbug,
Dompap, Topmejse, Bogfinke, Stillits, Blaamejse, Musuit (maybe Musvit), Halemejse.
Any idea what language and which birds in English? Many thanks in advance to any knowledgable person out there!

Danish. Do a Google search on bogfinke. Click on the sponsered link on the right side of the search results page.
