May is one of most the beautiful months in the year for nature lovers. The days are very long and the greenish is fresh and many of the trees and the shrubs are in the bloom. In the late evening after warm a rain light is especially good for fotography. These photos were taken near my home.

I want to introduce a bird that is not widely known as many others around us.This species I met quite late. I like his quiet gentle singing.Description The Common Rosefinch is larger than a sparrow. It has a stout and conical bill. The mature male has brilliant rosy-carmine head, breast and rump; heavy bill; dark brown wings with two indistinct bars, and a white belly. Females and young males are dull-colored with yellowish-brown above, brighter on the rump and greyer on head; buff below.
Habitat It has spread westward through Europe in recent decades, even breeding in England once. Common Rosefinches breed from the Danube valley, Sweden, and Siberia to the Bering Sea; the Caucasus, northern Iran and Afghanistan, the western Himalayas, Tibet and China; to Japan between latitudes 25° and 68°. In winter they are found from southern Iran to south-east China India, Burma, and Indochina. They are found in summer in thickets, woodland and forest edges near rivers and in winter in gardens and orchards, wetlands and locally in dry oak woods.
Behaviour The nest is placed low in a bush. The eggs are dark blue with coarse dark brown spots, and a typical clutch contains five eggs.
We have warm weather in May and around many of the tress and the shrubs in blooming. I would wish that this beatiful time last longer.
