Buchfink is such a good borb. "Pink!", he always says, loudly.

the tentilhão, also known as the madeiran chaffinch, is a member of the chaffinch family found exclusively on the portuguese island of madeira. they were formerly identified as a subspecies of the common chaffinch, but they are now generally accepted to be a distinct separate species. like other chaffinches, males are generally brighter and more colorful than their female counterparts. the species is widespread across the island, and is known to be generally relaxed and comfortable around humans.

Song Before Spring

Before the leaves appear, before the trees turn green, there is already music in the branches.

A small singer waits on a quiet limb, repeating his melody to the open sky.

Not for us. For another heart that might answer.
