The Snow Partridge

10,000 Birds

eBird calls the Snow Partridge a “stone-colored terrestrial bird of stony hillsides, mountain ridges, and meadows above treeline” – and in fact, it is impressive how well the bird fits in with its surroundings, at least when I saw it at about 4000 meters of altitude at the Balangshan pass. Presumably, the bird I saw was a male given that it has a spur, and the bill is coral-red (females apparently do not have spurs, and the bill is pinkish or greyish-pink, according to the HBW)

Animal in/under our house.

Reddit Animals

We have no Idea what it is tbh. Our cellar is made out of gravel, and on top of that are bricks. Today we found out, it 'dug' its way through the gravel. Also it spilled out dirt of a flower pot. We found a mouse in a mouse trap, but it was only its head, so maybe our secret roommate ate it? Do you have any Idea on what that could be?
