Japanese White-eye (Zosterops japonicus)

Hi friends,

I went to a neighbor small natural park last week, and took about 300 pictures of 10 species, shrike, daurian redstart, blue-tail, white-eye, long-tailed rose finch, hawfinch, oriental green finch, black-faced bunting, rustic bunting, great tit, varied tit, long-tailed tit, etc. This picture was the best one at the day, however many pictures of shrike and a few picture of white-eye were taken.

Thank you for viewing and have a nice weekend,
Toshi

from Wikipedia...
The Japanese White-eye is about 4 to 4.5 inches in size, with a yellow forehead, a greenish back, and dark brown wings and tail outlined in green. Like other white-eyes, this species exhibits the distinctive white eyering that gives it its name (mejiro also meaning "white eye" in Japanese). It is omnivorous, feeding primarily on insects and nectar.

Hallo Toshi
What a beautiful and interesting looking bird. A lovely and colourful photograph. This Japanese White-eye certainly has pretty eyes, and one can understand and also see where it got its name from. The shine in the brown of the bird's eye adds a special touch to this specific image. A great close up with clear details. I like the way the bird's head is tilted very slightly. The small seed in the birds mouth rounds of this photo. Thanks for sharing.
Kind regards
Anna
