look what we have for you!
fourth week bird of the week is the BRAMBLING
this cheeky little chappie is small and round and, apparently, gregarious in winter. so do make friends. he's mostly a country bird but he will hang out with chaffinches on garden crawls in the colder months.
he has an orange breast and a white tummy. when he flies you can also see his long white rump. (we're not sure which part of the bird this refers to)

The rump is the part of the bird below the back and above the tail feathers. It tends to be where the oil or preen gland is located, so they often dip their beak into that area when they preen. It makes them waterproof for the most part, hence why water falls off ducks so prettily.
