I am going on holiday now for a while, already missing the balcony crew.

*edit: It is a young goldfinch, right?

I probably should have said where i am located, it's in Düsseldorf, Germany. Regulus regulus should be around where i live too, according to my local bird book, but i have not seen one yet, i am quite certain it must be the child of Carduelis carduelis, European Goldfinch, the older ones are all over the feeder:
