Menoturals; Saturday Sounds
The Chaffinch is quite ubiquitous around the Hutch's area, and I have taken quite a few shots, particularly of the male... and because of that, I am deliberately sharing one of my rarer photos of the female of the species! As with all the warbler species, the song is crisp and clear...

Beautiful. We get so very few finches these days that the nyger seed we put out for them just ends up sprouting - uneaten.
ReplyDeleteUbiquitous here too, but not to be taken for granted.
ReplyDeleteLoved it
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful bird with the most wonderful song!
ReplyDeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteI love these beautiful birds, they do have a pretty song. I was happy to see them on my trip to Ireland. Great photos and thanks for sharing the video. Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Take care, have a great weekend. PS, thank you for leaving me a comment.
A Chaffinch, a lovely bird, is a finch not a warbler, unless you mean that it warbles in such a lovely way and is thus, in that sense, a sonorous warbler indeed.

DeleteQuite so, David... I think you know I know birds well enough, but accept that the wording was a tad indistinct! Yxx
Having a hearty laugh!
ReplyDeleteYAM the Chaffinch has a beautiful voice to match the most amazing colors of his feathers. I what a pretty blue noggin it has too.

ReplyDeleteHi Yam - it's delightful isn't it ... love the video clip - let alone the beauty of the bird. Thanks - cheers from a freezing south coast - unusual! Hilary
ReplyDeleteHello :=) It's a beautiful bird, the male in particular and I hear it's delightful song in spring more than I actually see it.
ReplyDeleteAll the best

What a pretty bird with a beautiful song.
ReplyDeleteI sure miss our bug-eating birds! The bugs are frozen under the ice and snow these days. I don't miss the bugs! XX
