Because I'm pretty sure it's some sort of White-eye, either a Warbling White-eye or Indian White-eye . . . but they would only be found in Asia.

If it's a bird that looks similar to this one, it could be a Vireo (specifically a White-eyed Vireo or Yellow-throated Vireo, or some kind of Flycatcher depending on where you live. The Merlin Bird App is a good resource to check or you can also try: https://www.whatbird.com/

Thank you so much!

No I didn't take the picture just found the closes looking one and posted that.

moe this bird looks kind of familiar in my bird book as a Varied Bunting. I am not sure but it is a bird with much color and small, same shape including the beak. I am not sure but looks close.

Thanks Stone! I often see birds out here in Green Acres that I can't find in our bird books and wonder about them....

It's a banded broadbill. They are a subtropical/tropical species found mostly in Southeast Asia. It is a beautiful bird and a very nice pic.

I can't help it. The photos are amazing. The stories/posts are great.

Can we just change the name of the thread from "Avairy" to "Aviary"...unless of course "Avairy" is the name of someone's great aunt and she loved birds.

So they showed up a couple of weeks ago. After a little research we found they love oranges AND grape jelly. We now have a skewered orange out for them but we need to figure out the grape jelly thing (I did buy some squirt jelly for when we do).
