Bavarian Bird (ID help)

February 2019, Begelberg Mountain.
Photographed on Begelberg Mountain in Bavaria, Germany (near the Austrian border). Species identification is appreciated.
 
One of the crossbills for sure, though someone more versed in European species of crossbills will have to give you species.
 
Anyway is known as Loxia curvirostra both in Europe and North America ;)
Not sure if the other species reach Germany, but the "intermediate" thickness of the bill made the identification easy. It's a female of course.
