The rains have arrived in full swing, and for the past few weeks, the skies have been a dull gray. While my euphoria about the rain fades away as quickly as the first cloudburst, the birds that frequent the trees by my window add an element of interest to an otherwise dreary day.
Here are a few shots of a magpie robin that seems to enjoy perching on a branch by my window ...
The magpie robins have a sweet call, and wag their tail up and down as they chirp. While they appear a solid black and white from a distance, a closer look reveals shades of black among their feathers. Further reading on Wikipedia informed me that the ones I've clicked are male oriental magpie robins.
Now does that explain why they were "busy" hopping from branch to branch, swinging in the wind, chirping their songs while the other birds were industriously flitting from flower to flower in search of nectar?
