Birds of Israel: The Bluethroat and the European Robin

My two favorite songbirds in particular are flying over us these days. 
I always drive this season to look for them and this week I went to the Masmiya area because I heard that one of them saw her there. Up you see the red chest and down the blue chest. 

They are both named after the color of their breasts. The red bird is very territorial and will attack anyone who approaches its living area and the blue is a kind of nightingale. The red-breasted grebe is a bouncy bird from branch to branch and the blue-breasted grebe is more of a terrestrial bird and is difficult to find on branches. Their size is more or less similar around 13 cm. 

While in red breasts it is difficult to distinguish between male and female in blue-breasted females the female is gray and the male is blue-blue. Last time there were black and white, this time red / orange and blue… 

So have a good Shabbat, happy Hanukkah and lots of color with good health!
