Native to the hilly forests of South and Southeast Asia, the Puff-throated Babbler is a brilliant little songbird. They often forage on the forest floor which is also where they build their nests.

Older sketch from my sketchbook that I attempted to color digitally later on.
[Image Description in Alt + Keep Reading]
[ID: Fineliner illustration on paper, digitally colored with soft pastels and a light sepia filter. Six birds perch on cherry tree branches that grow left and right, dotted with open cherry blossoms. In the center, a dove flies between the branches, holding a small cherry blossom branch in its beak. Thin, detailed lines emphasize leaf veins, creating a delicate texture. Four birds face left, and two face right, creating a calm, balanced scene. END ID]

BOTD: Zenaida Dove

"When Audubon explored Florida in the 1830s, he apparently found Zenaida Doves nesting on the Florida Keys. Today the species is only a very rare visitor to Florida from the islands of the Caribbean. Like its relatives, the Mourning and White-winged doves, it usually feeds on the ground in brushy or semi-open areas."

Hi, love your posts <3
What’s your favorite bird that you’ve seen irl?
Thank you!!
Without a doubt, it's the Lesser Prairie-Chicken. My friend was able to find a lek site and get permission from the government department which oversaw it to go out and see the birds lekking. I tagged along and despite it being a 4hr drive and a cold night at the campground, I got to see these tiny chickens pouring their heart out into showing off and competing for the ladies nearby. It was absolutely magical.

And they sound so weird!! I'll attach a link below. The uhh.... 'bubble' noises are made using their inflated throat pouches, and the other more 'chicken-y' noises are what they sound like when they're squabbling. They're sooooo cute.
