I’ve taken a video of this painting as the colours came out all dark and purple in the photo I took while it’s bluer in the original. Photo is in the comments

A #redkite that had fledged just a month or two before this was taken (back in 23).The young have dull grey eyes turning to yellow soon after.

Taken through the kitchen window. A fallen tree trunk they perch on

Spotted all of these so far on my trip to Ohio - but only *two* are actually the *same* as the UK birds of the same name...

Any guesses which?

1) Goldfinch
2) Sparrow
3) Robin
4) Chimney swift
