Collared Dove is now a familiar bird, occupying a range of open lowland habitats, but only began its colonisation of Britain in the 1950s.
Given favourable weather conditions, Collared Doves may nest in any month of the year. Despite the very small number of eggs laid for each nesting attempt, which is invariably two, multiple nesting attempts may be one reason why the species has been so successful.
Despite the dramatic long-term increase in numbers and range, a decline in Collared Dove populations was noted from 2005 onwards, and likely linked to the emergence and spread of finch trichomonosis.

The Collared Sunbird is an extremely small bird about half the size of a house sparrow. It's main diet is nectar. The Collared Sunbird feeds in typical sunbird fashion clasping the edge of the flower or taking up a perch close to the flower into which it pokes its long curved bill. It moves around quickly from flower to flower. It has the shortest bill of all the Sunbirds.
The Collared Dove (Streptopelia decaocto) is a species of bird in the dove family (Columbidae). It gets its name because the species has only since the 1930s immigrated from the southeast to the middle and now also to northern and western Europe.

Despite the name, male red-collared lemurs wear a white collar.
Pierre (born April 1, 2005) in Dallas now lives with a female ("Zaza") in the Madagascar Forest habitat of Africa Rocks, San Diego Zoo.
Conservation status: Endangered
Collared Pika (Ochotona collaris) live in scree fields at the base of mountain peaks, making dens among the rocks and feeding on the grasses and wildflowers around them. Although they look like mice, they are more closely related to rabbits and hares. This pika cooperatively posed on a ridge in the front range of the Chugach Mountains in Anchorage, Alaska.

I can't believe it didn't know I was standing there, but it flew in and landed just above me.
I'm not sure how long I held my breath, but It quickly decided there was nothing to suit its appetire and with a wingflap, it was gone.
I began to breathe again. :-)
Here's one from Ian's hide the other day.
When I was a youth I recall they were quite scarce but the Eurasian Collared Dove is now a common sight in our gardens and in rural villages. They seem to be often overlooked but are really attractive and delicate birds.

One of the reasons I have the utmost respect for these aggressive birds, is their ability to throw themselves into a treeline in hot pursuit.
This is a pair at play, you can spot the wing of the other disappearing behind the leaves.
The Black-collared Hawk is a striking raptor measuring 17 to 20 inches long, with an impressive wingspan of up to 4 feet. Found throughout Central and South America, this bird thrives near wetlands and rivers, primarily preying on fish.

Just a small record of this little owlet
This one is the 4th species of Owlet we photographed during our two week trip to India.
It's not a good photo but I hope in the future to have the opportunity to take a better one.

While we were standing on the beach, the Sparrowhawk made several runs up and down the water's edge.
Perhaps it was looking for wrens or finches hiding in the scrub along the beach line.

This bird was out patrolling for a mid-morning snack.
It made several forays through the trees and also we watched it pursue a flock of Starlings.

Collared Sparrowhawk, Accipiter cirrhocephalus

Often wondered how to pick a male from a female Sparrowhawk?
She is about 1/3 size bigger.
There is no optical foreshorting here, he is directly above her.
The only thing in discussion is whether he is chasing off one of his young from the season, or she has a much more mottled coat.
There is a theory about why she is larger and has to do with hunting differences. During winter when many trees have lost their leaves she will be hunting on her own and can easily slip through. In summer when the trees are in full leaf, he being smaller, can fit through as he's hunting for the family.
So David Attenbro once said.
Toucans are always huge crowd pleasers whenever we have a chance to travel to a place that has them. Who wouldn’t be impressed with a beak like that? This Collared Aracari was definitely a show stopper while we were trying to enjoy our lunch this past March during our trip to Costa Rica.
