πŸ”— birdbrainer.app

A small bird perched on the top of a green acacia shrub, facing left, with warm sandy-brown upperparts streaked darker, a plain pale buff-grey head and face, whitish underparts, a small dark conical bill, and a dark reddish eye, set against a softly blurred blue- grey and green background.

Text on card: The Northern Grey-headed Sparrow (Passer griseus) is a sociable bird found across much of sub-Saharan Africa, from open woodland and savannah to villages, gardens and farmland. Its grey head, chestnut-brown back and pale underparts give it a subtle but distinctive appearance, with males and females looking much alike. Often seen hopping along the ground in pairs or small flocks, it feeds mainly on seeds and grain, supplementing its diet with insects. A familiar neighbour in many communities, it readily nests in cavities in trees and buildings.

Bird of the Day: Whooper Swan (Cygnus cygnus) #birdoftheday #botd #whooperswan #cygnuscygnus #birdsoftheworld #birds #birdbrainerapp #birdbrainer
πŸ”— birdbrainer.app

A large all-white swan swimming on calm rippled blue water, facing left in profile, with an upright elongated neck, a distinctive yellow-and-black bill, and its pale form softly reflected in the water below.

Text on card: One of the largest and heaviest flying birds in the world, the Whooper Swan breeds across the boreal zone from Iceland and northern Scotland east through Scandinavia and Russia to eastern Siberia, wintering on coastal estuaries, flooded grassland, and sheltered bays in Britain and Ireland, the Low Countries, Japan, and Korea. It is distinguished from the familiar Mute Swan by its long, straight neck held erect rather than curved, its flat-based yellow-and- black bill without a knob, and above all by its deeply resonant, bugling calls - the "whooping" that gives the species its name - delivered in flight and on the water. Pairs mate for life, and family groups remain together on their wintering grounds, the young birds gradually acquiring pure white plumage through th first winter.

Text on card: Found across Europe, Asia, and parts of North Africa, inhabiting fast-flowing streams, rivers, waterfalls, and millraces, and in winter commonly found at sewage works, reservoirs, and coastal marshes. Despite its name, the grey upperparts are less striking than the vivid yellow underparts and rump that flash in flight.
