So many birds are so colorful — and others are not — and research has shown that birds use color in different ways. They also see color differently than humans. What a great topic for a diary! Alas, that diary is not today’s. I just don’t have time and will save that as a future topic. Still, I thought we could use this edition of Dawn Chorus to share some of the colorful birds we have in our midst and use this as an open thread.
Listed below are some of the more colorful birds I’ve seen from time-to-time. Spring is here, mating season is upon us, and some bird species are showing their finest colors at this time of year. What’s in your backyard, neighborhood or habitat? A few of mine are below to get us started.
Happy Sunday and enjoy this open thread.
