It's been a hectic weekend! My hub drove a 1600 mile round trip to adopt these two sweeties. Celeste (formerly Maya) is the older one with no black, and Corvi (formerly Monty) is the baby. Welcome home, little darlings!

April 8, 2024 - Ashy-headed Laughingthrush (Argya cinereifrons) These laughingthrushes are found in parts of southwestern Sri Lanka in lowland and mountain forests. They eat invertebrates, small vertebrates, fruit, and seeds, foraging in flocks, sometimes with other species, on or near the ground in leaf litter and vegetation. Breeding cooperatively, they build large nests from twigs, dry leaves, rootlets, and lichen in bushes or small trees. Females lay clutches of three to four eggs, though more than one may lay them. Multiple group members incubate the eggs and care for the chicks. They are classified as Vulnerable by the IUCN due to moderate population declines from habitat loss and degradation in their small and fragmented range.

Everyone knows wild turkeys are quite large.

But if you have the opportunity to get close to one, their size can really startle you.
