[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is another bem-te-vi I post here. Its size is approximately 20 cm, and he feeds mainly on insects. According to a note I've already written, his name is an onomatopoeia. When people here listen to his voice, they think its sound is similar to words in Portuguese, since they can be understood as “I saw you well” or “Honey, I saw you”. Therefore, the bem-te-vi offers us, Brazilians, a suggestive singing. If you wish to hear it (and also have more informations about the bird - in Portuguese), go to www.saudeanimal.com.br/bemtevi.htm

Hi Livio
Sorry, I take so long to get to you, I am playing catch-up, and can never get it right. So, I have to mis posts, otherwise I will never get through my debt.
TFS, anothr nice picture showing his lovely yellow belly. It appears that he is sitting in a bottlebrush or eucalyptus, an Australian tree, is it so?

Interesting subject, Livio. I don't know these birds. The tree looks more like a "bottlebrush" to me? Sharp and colourfull compo. Well done.
