The Common Linnet (Carduelis cannabina) is a small passerine of the finch family, Fringillidae. It derives its scientific name from its fondness for hemp and its English name from its liking flax seed, from which linen is made. The common linnet is a slim bird with a long tail. The upper parts are brown, the throat is sullied white and the bill is grey. The summer male has a grey nape, red head-patch and red breast. Females and young birds lack the red and have white underparts, the breast streaked buff. Open land with thick bushes is favoured for breeding, including heathland and garden. It builds its nest in a bush, laying 4-7 eggs.The common linnet’s pleasant song contains fast trills and twitters. It feeds on the ground, and low down in bushes. The bird was a popular pet in the late Victorian and Edwardian eras. Tennyson mentions “the linnet born within the cage” in part 27 of the poem In Memoriam A.H.H, the same section that contains the famous lines “‘Tis better to have loved and lost / Than never to have loved at all.”
