Lovely to hear this Whitethroat singing. I'm not sure what the marks are on its white throat but if anyone knows I would love to know.
First saw (and heard) this bird in Australia. Their song and chatter always bring a smile to my face, although in large numbers the sound can be overwhelming! Listen: youtu.be/Fc_-icFHwQo
A stonechat (Saxicola torquata) was singing at a wildflower sanctuary, Koshimizu, Hokkaido, Japan).

The next day in the Anna's Hummingbird story. They are significantly bigger and only two days away from leaving the nest.
On this day the chicks were no longer 'shy' in singing their song, as they were as loud as mom, and tricked me several times that she was coming when she wasn't.

I believe that those who sing are a family. On the left the female, in the middle the father and on the right a "teenager" son. Notice that its orange color is somewhat more subdued.
There were choruses of them on the forest floor, joined by others singing the pinks, whites, yellows and a few purples.
They're only here for a short time each Spring so it was good to catch their recital.

Killdeer (Charadrius vociferus)
Emigrant Lake - Jackson County - Oregon - USA
Habitat : Grasslands
Food : Insects
Nesting : Ground
Behavior : Ground Forager
Conservation : Low Concern
"A shorebird you can see without going to the beach, Killdeer are graceful plovers common to lawns, golf courses, athletic fields, and parking lots. These tawny birds run across the ground in spurts, stopping with a jolt every so often to check their progress, or to see if they’ve startled up any insect prey. Their voice, a far-carrying, excited kill-deer, is a common sound even after dark, often given in flight as the bird circles overhead on slender wings... The Killdeer’s broken-wing act leads predators away from a nest, but doesn’t keep cows or horses from stepping on eggs. To guard against large hoofed animals, the Killdeer uses a quite different display, fluffing itself up, displaying its tail over its head, and running at the beast to attempt to make it change its path."

After being awarded a place in Explore with the previous image, I've thought I should have the Singing Honeyeater in its full glory in my collection on Flickr too. This is another bird on a coastal shrub. facing the ocean.

First day of the relaxation of some lockdown restrictions so I was up at dawn this morning for an early trip to my favourite spot on Dartmoor for these beautiful birds.
The morning light was stunning and this male obliged by singing out in the open against the lovely backdrop of the moorland.
