The Yellowhammer (Emberiza citrinella) is a small bird that shines beautifully in gold and never ceases to amaze me. Especially the males have an intense luminosity, which comes into its own here in the snow.

Die Goldammer ist ein kleiner wunderschön in Gold glänzender Vogel der mich immer wieder begeistert. Besonders die Männchen haben eine intensive Leuchtkraft, die hier im Schnee besonders schön zu Geltung kommt.
