this poor girl (female bullfinch, Pyrrhula pyrrhula) was presumably absolutely hammered from fermented berries. just stood there leaning to one side and blinking tried to lift her from the walkway, but then she flitted into the bushes. another one was lying dead in the bushes, killed by a rat?
Bullfinch on the concrete tile paved ground leaning to one side. She is grey-brown-black Bullfinch sitting in a Bush looking perhaps a bit more alert

🪶 Красотка-снегириха! Попалась в сеть вместе со своей подругой, больно кусалась и, в отличие от напарницы, не спешила улетать после выпуска, а ещё минуты две посидела, пока её не "попросили" покачиванием ладони улететь в лес.

Eurasian Bullfinch (Pyrrhula pyrrhula): These magnificent 16cm (6in) finches feed their young insects during the breeding season, but the rest of the year they normally feed on seeds, fruit and buds. Fantastic photo taken by Christiane Old in the UK. #bullfinch #bird #birds #nature #wildlife

Male Eurasian bullfinch (Pyrrhula pyrrhula)...the Palearctic, ranging from the British Isles & Europe across Asia to the Pacific coast of Japan. Known for their quiet, "mournful" whistled call, often described as a soft "pew" or "piping" sound. #birds #nature #biology #wildlife
a male Eurasian bullfinch, a small, stocky songbird about the size of a sparrow. It features a striking, bold appearance: it has a glossy, jet-black cap that covers its crown and face, contrasting with a soft, vibrant rose-red chest and belly. Its back is a smooth, slate-gray, and it has a short, thick, conical black beak designed for crushing seeds and buds. It is perched amidst delicate branches, its rounded body held in a calm, upright posture.

Ojalá haber podido hacerle una foto a esta camachuela (Pyrrhula pyrrhula) como las que regularmente les hace @peypa.bsky.social; pero no ayudaron ni la distancia, ni la luz del sotobosque, ni la cámara. Qué bichos más bonitos son, de todas maneras 😊
Hembra de camachuelo europeo (Pyrrhula pyrrhula). Una rama atraviesa la foto desde la esquina inferior izquierda a la superior derecha y sobre ella está posada el ave, en vista lateral, con la cabeza hacia la derecha de la imagen. Es un ave con hechuras de gorrión, pero con el pico más corto y ligeramente curvado. Es un ave con el píleo y el entorno del pico negro, cola y alas negro azuladas (las alas con una banda blanca transversal muy llamativa), y de cuerpo marrón: marrón grisáceo en el dorso y marrón con un leve tono rosado en mejillas, pecho y vientre; estas áreas son rojas en el macho.

Last week I went out with a buddy to National Park de Hoge Veluwe to sit in some birding huts while the temperatures outside hit 32°C. Many of the birds came for refreshing baths. 🪶 #birds #birdphotography #DutchNature #NationalPark #HogeVeluwe #bullfinch #willowwarbler #blackcap #hawfinch #bluetit
Bullfinch / Goudvink (Pyrrhula pyrrhula) poofed up after a refreshing bath and shaking its wings. Willow warbler / Fitis (Phylloscopus trochilus) on a branch after a bath, the wet feathers show a lot more varied colors than just the yellowish/green that they normally have. Hawfinch / Appelvink (Coccothraustes coccothraustes) this one gave some great eye contact while it was drying off and preening. Blue tit / Pimpelmees (Cyanistes caeruleus) looking a bit disheveled after its dip in the pond.

Well done NPWS and An Garda Siochána for tackling wildlife crime and freeing this Bullfinch. Taking birds from the wild like this is a crime.
