What bird is this?
Hello,
Was on way home when I saw this bird at an open field. Photo was taken using flash as it was too dark. A so-so shot but wish someone can identify this baby bird. Don't think this bird belong to HDB area...

Re: What bird is this?
Haha, I got zero pm leh!
By the way this is the 3rd time in so many years I had seen this bird around my area, about 5 mins walk from jurong point. Twice I saw it under my blk around the pavement. Which the latter was an injured and I bought it to my work place and the bird got stolen together with the cage... Yeah yesterday evening I saw it again but at open field, will continue look out next few days  If only I got birding equipments?
