Not sure why but this little guy and the Black Oystercatcher were the two birds I wanted to see the most.
"Odd Man Out"
Wikipedia: The chestnut munia or black-headed munia (Lonchura atricapilla) is a small passerine. It was formerly considered conspecific with the closely related tricolored munia, but is now widely recognized as a separate species. This estrildid finch is a resident breeding bird in Bangladesh, Brunei, Cambodia, China, India, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Burma, Nepal, the Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand, Vietnam and Hawaii. It also has been introduced to all the Greater Antilles and Martinique in the Caribbean.
Conservation status: Least Concern
This Andean antpitta occurs from Venezuela to northern Peru where it occupies cloud forests from the subtropical to temperate zones. The song is an emphatic series of three whistles, which Colombians refer to as 'com-prar pan,' which translates as 'buy bread'.) Reserva Ecológica Río Blanco, Colombia
One advantage of going north to Tennessee is finding the Redbuds still in bloom so I brought home the perch from my prior post and endeavored to put it to use in the Georgia Mountains.
My goal was this species and B1ackburn1an on the perch.
Thankfully it worked out and the early morning light was glorious!
I often see black capped chickadees in our area, but not nearly as often the chestnut-backed variety. But a few days ago, I was fortunate enough to get some shots of one in an area where I often see black-capped. I guess we can never take our birds for granted!
