After listening to the calls of a Pitta without getting a glimpse I gave up on it. The Wrens saved me from becoming grumpy. I was actually delighted to see these small blots of life darting through the woods. The rest of the day I just wandered around, not really searching. Just playing it by ear.
4 Different Cuckoos were calling. A Common Cuckoo came to perch in a nearby tree.
The Bull-headed Shrikes, モズ parents and children were rather noisy.
White-becked Woodpeckers, オオアカゲラ adult and juvenile
Tits welcomed me at their usual hang-out
Willow Tit, コガラ
Eurasian Nuthatch, ゴジュウカラ
The flycatchers dropped by
Narcissus Flycatcher, キビタキ
Blue-and-white Flycatcher, オオルリ could be heard for miles, but would not come down.
And when one did - I nearly missed him
Last but not least: Chestnut-eared Bunting, ホオアカ
