Coal Tit (Periparus ater) is surely not as colourful as the Blue or Great Tit.

They have a distinctive grey back, black cap, and white patch at the back of its neck. Again a regular visitor to most feeders in the UK

Another beauty from the highlands of Borneo. Calls heard very often in the mornings but seen uncommonly.

The last photo of the rare drake Bufflehead duck I took before it left the Sand Loch, Forvie NNR, Aberdeenshire. I can almost convince myself that he's having a laugh. Good luck, safe travels and I hope you make it home to North America. #naturelovers #TwitterNatureCommunity

It has a beautiful call. The Blue Rockthrush is an old world flycatcher and prefers sitting up on open perches close to insect infestations where it can feed and keep an eye out on the world. It’s a busy little bird, it’s not too shy and stays still for pics @indiaves

This image of the near-endemic Orange-necked Partridge ( #BirdsSeenIn2024 ) with its tri-coloured black, grey and orange head was photographed earlier today here in #Vietnam as the #bird was dislodging the topsoil in its search for food [BirdingInChina.com].

Blue-and-white Flycatcher (Cyanoptila cyanomelana) male. Differentiated from the Zappey's Flycatcher (Cyanoptila cumatilis) by the darker breast & face.

European greenfinch (Chloris chloris) is a small bird that is widespread throughout Europe, North Africa and Southwest Asia.

Mainly resident, but some northernmost populations migrate further south feeding on seeds, berries, fruit, buds, flowers.
