Alpine Accentor. Nantou County, Taiwan.

Alpine accentors form breeding groups with multiple males and females, and both sexes mate with multiple partners. DNA fingerprinting has shown that broods often have mixed paternity.

Another great hike during the week with lots of Accentors, some more Rock Thrush and Ring Ouzel. But the highlight was a Short toed Eagle circling out of the mist and passing almost within arms reach!

Much better weather on the Montagne d'Aret today 😎! Highlights inc. cresties, Darties, 7 griffons (& very distant probable black vulture), 2 heard-only black woodpeckers, 25 Alpine accentors & ca.30 very flighty white-winged snowfinches #birds #birding #OrbValleyBirding #orbvalleyflyway

In het Engels klinken ze cooler: 'Alpine accentors'. Klinkt als de leadzanger van de deathmetalband Extreme Vomit.

A recent trip to Sorrento, Italy saw us visit Mount Vesuvius where I was overjoyed to walk into 2 Alpine Accentors after missing them in the Pyrenees and Atlas Mountains over the years. Good numbers of Black Redstart were also present.

Up to the viewpoint above Stepantsminda for Caucasian Snowcocks this morning where two showed beautifully. Caucasian Black Grouse, more Great Rosefinches, Alpine Accentors, Wallcreepers and a surprise White-winged Snowfinch made for a great pre-breakfast jaunt @wisebirding.bsky.social #phonescoped

An unexpected highlight from India were my first Alpine Accentors!
I always assumed they would be a glorified Dunnock, but I never expected them to be so... chunky!
Honestly, very impressed! Full of character!
10/10 bird! Would recommend to a friend!

Birding on the Espinouse (Hérault, France) can be a bit hit and miss in a Force 6 Tramontane. But a little persistence today delivered 12+ griffons, 9+ Alpine accentors and 2 black vultures - as ever channeling their inner "Romulan warbird" #birds #orbvalleybirding #orbvalleyflyway

A glorious day on the Montagne d'Aret today, with 2 linnets (by no means regular here), 2 common crossbills, 20++ ravens, 10++ griffons, ringtail hen harrier, 6+ Alpine accentors and a flypast white-winged snowfinch #birds #birding #OrbValleyBirding #orbvalleyflyway

My New Year's Day birding largely thwarted by low cloud & a biting Tramontane. That said, two-plus dippers, two kingfishers squabbling over a perch (to sit on, not the fish), one calling black woodpecker, and two drive-up-to Alpine accentors #birds #birding #OrbValleyBirding #orbvalleyflyway
