One of my favorite birds! I had a pair that nested in my garden in England every year for around 14 years. They became so used to me that the male would jump up on the ground feeder while I was still carrying it out from the house after refilling it with seed or fruit. They would come & greet me when I got home to tell me that the feeder was empty! Sadly he was killed by a hawk the year before I left for the US.
A Project Noah spotter is always a spotter, even in vacations! Good find Sergio.
