Mostly Birds, Mostly One In Particular

Bird #93 - Regent honeyeater (CR)

In the wild, regent honeyeaters are so rare that young birds are struggling to learn the song of their own species; the complexity of their song has decreased across generations, and some honeyeaters now sing the calls of other birds. This gradual loss of identity could impact their ability to find a mate.

オオバン / Eurasian Coot 

初めてオオバンを見た時、

こんなオシャレな鳥が身近にいるんだと感動しました。

オオバンの足を見て、さらにビックリ。

コロンとしたボディ、おしゃれな額板、奇妙な足、そしてニンマリ笑ってるような表情もたまりません☺️

When I first saw a Eurasian coot, I was amazed to discover such a stylish bird living nearby. And its feet surprised me even more!

オオバンずくめ / Full of Eurasian Coot

沢山のオオバンで埋め尽くされたとりもように🕊️

たくさん集まると黒ずくめの怪しい雰囲気になるので、POPな色合いにしました🫶

I created a pattern filled with lots of Eurasian coots 🕊️

Goldcrest!

オオバンと足跡 /  Eurasian Coot and Footprints

オオバンと足跡をとりもように🕊️

オオバンの足は、冬は鉛色、夏は黄緑色に変化する個体がいるようです👀

冬版と夏版の２パターンあります🪽

I created a pattern with the coot and its footprints 🕊️

Some Eurasian coots change the color of their feet depending on the season—lead gray in winter and yellow-green in summer 👀
