Hello friends, I drew a thing again! It’s been too long! And it’s another small round bird: a warbler. He is very, very pleased to meetcha.
The male Chestnut-sided Warbler sings two song types; one is accented at the end, the other is not. The first is used before the arrival of the females and in the early nesting cycle. The second is used mostly in territory defense while the birds are raising young.
American Bird Conservancy
Males that only sing one song type appear to be less successful at attracting mates than males that sing both songs. The early-season song has a musical quality with an emphatic ending, sometimes interpreted as “very very pleased to meet cha!”
That’s a gorgeous drawing! 🙂

✏️🐦 TO DRAW A LITTLE BIRD, WHILE WATCHING IT, WE HAVE TO HOLD THE PENCIL GENTLY, AS DELICATE IS ITS BODY AND PLUMAGE.
