This social flycatcher landed in some vines , while I was in Oaxaca ( Mexico ) and proceeded to start singing , then his head feather started changing colors 🤩
It seemed it has a vermilion crown .

Skimming the Autumn Light: Three Terns at Aammiq
On a warm September morning at Aammiq Wetland—the largest remaining freshwater marsh in Lebanon—wildlife photographer and SPNL Birdwatcher Chadi Saad caught a fleeting trio in perfect light: Gull-billed Tern, White-winged Tern, and Whiskered Tern. The images distill what Aammiq does best in early autumn: turn migration into a living classroom. A meeting place on the flyway Cradled in the West Bekaa, Aammiq sits on one of the world’s great migration corridors, where reedbeds, open pools, and flooded meadows offer exactly what traveling terns need: calm water, insect hatches, and room to rest.
