Redwing

Last week I discovered the Redwing, (Koperwiek), (Turdus iliacus) in my garden.

Few days ago I was able to take a snapshot while he was drinking.

A lovely bird...with a red-orange flank and underwing.

beautiful dark brown spots on his white breast.

Coming all the way from the north... Sweden, Russia, Norway.

seeking a warmer climate in wintertime.

I hope he will stay for a while.
