Common Chaffinch Norfolk Woodlands.. by Adam Swaine Via Flickr: Male chaffinches are colourful birds with an orange-pink breast and cheeks, grey-blue cap and orange-brown back. Females are much duller brown with hints of green and yellow.The Chaffinch is one of the most widespread and common birds in Britain and Ireland. Its patterned feathers help it blend in when feeding on the ground, so it's easiest to see when it flies, as a flash of white on the wings and white outer tail feathers is revealed. It's shy when it comes to bird feeders, preferring to hop about under the bird table or under the hedge. You'll usually hear Chaffinches before you see them, thanks to their loud song and range of calls

Storm Hawks OC Challenge - August 2022

Here we are Storm Hawks! It's August, time for a new bird in the challenge! This month we're going for the Baltimore Oriole (Icterus galbula)!

(Pictured above, an adult male (left) and adult female (right))

This is the state bird of Maryland USA, and the mascot for the baseball team of the same name. It's part of the Icterus family, and is closely related to several species of American blackbirds. The name Oriole derives from the Latin word aureolus, meaning "golden". As migratory passerine birds, they naturally tend to venture southwards to warmer climates during the winter months.

Deadline this month is the 25th of August. As always, make sure to DM me to let me know about your entries, and if you want to partake in the winner's vote and entry collage.

Oh, and don't forget to put in your vote for your favourite Secretarybird OC, the vote is still going on here.

Rules are below the cut:

Minimum requirements for drawn entries to be put in the winner's vote are a name, occupation, the character's home/birth Terra and at least one paragraph (or about 100 words) of written backstory.

Minimum requirements for written (i.e. written dossiers without art, or mini-fics for the character) are 500 words including backstory and appearance. Feel free to make a mini-fic out of this challenge, I'll make sure to link it with the final collage as well.

Entrants who are part of the Storm Hawks discord server will have the chance of getting a custom role for the next month! If you’re not part of the discord server, please ask for an invite if you’re interested.

Make sure to tag me in your entries and also DM me with a link to your entry. Tumblr is not always reliable about notifications for this sort of thing, and I don't want to risk missing anyone's entries, so better safe than sorry.

The winner of the vote will receive a free sketch piece of their character from me.

Sparrows! Male house sparrows have black patches on their throats that darken during the mating season - darker patches are more attractive to lady sparrows. :-)

[ID: an illustration of a male and a female house sparrow. The male is perched on a branch to the left and the female is coming in for a landing to the right. The background is a soft orange sunrise with sun rays radiating from the center. End.]

BOTD: Scaled Antpitta

Photo: Cheryl Rosenfeld

"A plump ball on sticks. Uncommon and elusive on forest floor in humid evergreen forest of tropical lowlands and foothills; also in humid pine-oak and fir forest of mountains in central Mexico. Moves quickly and stealthily on long legs. May be seen feeding or hopping along quiet trails and roads. Flushes with a whir of wings without calling."

Eurasian chaffinch Norfolk Woodland by Adam Swaine Via Flickr: The chaffinch is one of the most common bird species in the UK and one of the top 10 most reported birds in Garden BirdWatch gardens. In Britain, the highest breeding densities are found in southern, central and eastern England, and on upland edges in northern England and Scotland.Despite being found in many different habitats, chaffinches were originally deciduous woodland birds. They have adapted to a range of habitats, especially where suitable trees and shrubs occur for nesting and these days are just as likely to be found in gardens, farmland hedgerows and parks.

Me: In Mary Poppins (1964), during the song 'A Spoonful of Sugar', Mary interacts with, and sings about, a robin. The film is set in the UK where robins are European robins (Erithacus rubecula), passerine birds in the Family Muscicapidae (i.e Old World Flycatchers), the kind that always show up on Xmas cards in the UK. However, the two robins in the scene are very obviously based off American robins (Turdus migratorius), passerine birds in the Family Turdidae (i.e thrushes), and a species much more closely related to the common/Eurasian blackbird than a European robin. Whilst it's not entirely unknown for American robin's to venture to the UK, any that do are nearly always rare vagrants and certainly wouldn't be "feathering a nest". Worker: ... Worker: Ma'am, this is a Greggs.
