A Yellow-casqued Hornbill sitting on a tree top facing the sun. It has a cute reddish brown crest and a blue ring around it's eyes. A blue fob hangs on it's neck. Also listed as 'Vulnerable', these birds recognise alarm calls made by local monkeys to know when a predatory eagle is near. As with us, they are generally spotted in a distance, high up on the forest canopy. We were SO VERY LUCKY to have seen them! Scientific name: Ceratogymna elata Conservation status: Vulnerable

A Blue Tit, perched on a vertical, lichen-covered twig (on the other side of that twig, from our perspective). The underside of the bird’s body and tail are facing towards us (with the tail pointing towards the bottom right corner of the image), with the head turned to face towards the left side of the image. Blue Tits are small, colourful, and characterful birds. The head is white with a blue crown, and black stripes encircling the cheeks. The underparts are yellow, with a short, often irregular, black stripe running down the middle of the belly. We can't see the wings or back here. The underside of the tail is grey. The beak, and the legs and feet, are dark grey.
More of a #TwigBird than a #BranchBird (today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme), but I’m going with it! A brilliant Blue Tit (from Brandon Marsh on Saturday) to end a #Plumescrolling thread in which we’ve seen pics of this species either approaching or departing. #Birds #UKWildlife #EastCoastKin #Photography 🌿
