The Chestnut-naped Antpitta is a typical ground-dwelling Grallaria, although it sings from a low perch, and which strongly prefers bamboo thickets in humid montane forest at 1900 to 3150 m. Its geographical range extends from north-central Colombia to northernmost Peru. As is typical of the Grallariidae, very little has been published to date concerning this species’ ecology, although the eggs have been described, and the Chestnut-naped Antpitta is presumably a fairly strict insectivore. Three species of the Chestnut-naped Antpitta are recognized and these differ principally in their crown colour and the intensity of the saturation to the underparts, although there are also some differences in their vocalizations. The basic plumage pattern, common to all three, is of gray underparts with a darker face, and rufous-brown upperparts, usually brightest and most rufescent over the crown and nape. doi.org/10.2173/bow.chnant1.01

Chestnut - Castanea sativa the sweet chestnut, Spanish chestnut or just chestnut, is a species of tree in the family Fagaceae, native to Southern Europe and Asia Minor.
Shot in mid September this year.
The Bluish tint of the leaves is from the Blue sky that day.
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

Each Spring, on the Sunday closest to 11th May, people come from all over London and the South East to join in the local tradition of celebrating the blossom on the magnificent horse chestnut trees in Bushy Park.
The tradition originated in the mid-19th Century and continued until World War II. It was revived in 1993.
Chestnut Sunday has evolved through its long history but the central feature is a parade down Chestnut Avenue.
The photo shows the horse leading the parade and some of the crowds and the blossom on one of the chestnut trees.

Lovely as I find those endearing red squirrels, I have to be content with this grey I found in my archives. I did a little research and found that squirrels eat almost any kind of nut and this squirrel is definitely sitting in a sweet chestnut tree. Apparently they also like most vegetables, fruit, and whatever you put in the bird feeder etc etc!
🌳so many thanks for all visits to my photostream🌳
"You are like a chestnut burr, prickly outside, but silky-soft within, and a sweet kernel, if one can only get at it. Love will make you show your heart some day, and then the rough burr will fall off." Louisa May Alcott

By the time I made it to Magee Marsh, Ohio, most of the migrating songbirds must have already passed through (or never arrived). There were so few birds compared to previous years, but there were a lot of photographers : )
This fattened Chestnut-sided Warbler waited long enough for me to get two pictures of him, and then he flitted into the dense undergrowth. He may remain in northern Ohio, or continue to Michigan or to southern Canada.
