The most popular bird in M Park is the Chinese Grosbeak, beyond doubt. A long line of cameras is set up at the water basin, where photographers might get a chance to observe the target bird at eye level. They have to be there early, though. And prepared to wait in the cold. I did and braved the elements 3 times. Yet again, without gloves.
Japanese Grosbeak, イカル and Chinese Grosbeak, コイカル (right)
More black on the head, orange flanks and a slightly smaller body.
Darker colored on the back as well
Off he is
If he doesn't come down to drink, you have to look for him in the trees.
At another location, Japanese Grosbeak, イカル, are having a ball
Enjoy!
