[[Image:Bluethroat.JPG]] '''Common Name:''' Bluethroat<br> '''Scientific Name:''' Luscinia svecica '''Size:''' 5.1-5.5 inches (13-14.5 cm); '''Wingspan:''' 7.9-10.6 inches (20-27 cm) '''Habitat:''' Europe, Asia, Africa and North America; a migratory species breeding in Europe and Asia with a foothold in western Alaska. It winters in North Africa and the Indian Subcontinent. Its preferred habitat is in wet birch woodlands or bushy swamps. '''Status:''' Least Concern. '''Global population:''' 2,000,000 individuals. The population is suspected to be stable in the absence of evidence for any declines or substantial threats. '''Diet:''' Insects. '''Nesting:''' It is plain brown above except for the distinctive black tail with red side patches. It has a strong white supercilium. The male has a blue bib edged below with successive black, white and rust colored borders. Some races, such as ''L. svecica svecica'' (Red-spotted Bluethroat) of northern Eurasia, have a brownish-red spot in the center of the blue bib. Others, such as ''L. svecica cyanecula'' (White-spotted Bluethroat) of southern and central Europe, have a white spot in the center of the blue bib. ''L. svecica magna'' in Turkey has no central spot. Females of all races usually have just a blackish crescent on an otherwise cream throat and breast. Newly fledged juveniles are freckled and spotted dark brown above. It nests in tussocks or low in dense bushes. '''Cool Facts:''' Despite the distinctive appearance of the males in different regions, recent genetic studies show only limited variation between the forms, and confirm that this is a single species.
