	yourYukon: Bluethroats breeding in north Yukon
		The main target of their efforts was the Bluethroat, a small, secretive Eurasian thrush with an eye-catching iridescent blue throat and an impressive repertoire of songs.
		We've found Bluethroats on the North Slope in the past -- most recently during CWS fieldwork in 1993 -- but this is the first time we've confirmed that they're breeding here, says biologist Cameron Eckert, leader of the field crew.
		Bluethroats are notoriously furtive, skulking through vegetation and hard to see.

		The Bluethroat, Luscinia svecica, is a small passerine bird that was formerly classed as a member of the thrush family Turdidae, but is now more generally considered to be an Old World flycatcher, Muscicapidae.
		The Bluethroat is similar in size to the European Robin at 13-14 cm.
		But the two brothers Power had been studying maps, and the idea occurred to them that the spit of North Norfolk shingle which runs out into the sea from Cley must be an ideal resting place for tired birds on the southward journey from their breeding-grounds in the far north.

	Bluethroat, Luscinia svecica
		But the two brothers Power had been studying maps, and the idea occurred to them that the spit of North Norfolk shingle which runs out into the sea from Cley must be an ideal resting place for tired birds on the southward journey from their breeding-grounds in the far north.
		It was even possible that the rarest, loveliest and most sought-after of the feathered tribe, the Arctic bluethroat might be among their number, though such a prize was hardly to be expected except with the greatest good fortune.
		Nothing but bluethroats would be talked of for days together, and congratulations were showered on the lucky individual who returned home with the coveted prize.

	Arctic Refuge: Bluethroats
		The Bluethroat is one of Alaska's most beautiful birds and is unique in that it has the most varied song repertoire of any bird in the state except for the Raven.
		I was elated because, although I had seen a female Bluethroat once before on a previous visit to the Refuge, I had not found the nest or even heard the male.
		The male Bluethroat repeated this behavior through the remainder of our stay in the Refuge, alternately bouncing and singing from willow to willow, and chasing the female back and forth in her search of food for her steadily growing family.

	BBC - h2g2 - Bluethroats
		The bluethroat Luscinia svecica is also known as the red-spotted bluethroat and the white-spotted bluethroat, and was formerly known as the blue-throated robin.
		Bluethroats are migratory birds; they commonly spend the winter months in the remote forests of Asia and Scandinavia.
		Bluethroats become even more secretive during the breeding season, when the male's blue throat becomes a much brighter blue, and his song is louder in order to attract females.

	Yukon: Home of the Bluethroat
		The Bluethroat (Luscinia svecica) is an old world thrush which breeds in most of northern and central Europe and across northern Asia to eastern Siberia and Manchuria.
		As well, when not singing, the Bluethroat is a difficult to observe skulker which spends most of its time quietly foraging deep in the tangles of low shrub.
		While its primary breeding habitat is low shrub thicket, a study of Bluethroats along the upper Noatak River of the Seward Peninsula found that adjacent tussock tundra was a critical habitat component.

	Bluethroat Luscinia Svecica
		This is a bird destined for the damp birch forests of Scandinavia and yet finding it sheltering from the sun under a meager desert plant was a powerful reminder that migration is an exceedingly dangerous phenomenon for so many birds.
		For the Bluethroat it was a question of lasting out the hot hours of the day before resuming what little feeding was available in the desert.
		Although many Bluethroats spend the winter in Israel, the red-spotted form is scarce and it's quite possible that this individual had spent the winter in East Africa.

	Introduction — Bluethroat — Birds of North America Online
		When seen in the open, the Bluethroat often jerks or holds its tail up and quickly fans it open to flash the rufous patches at the base.
		The first evidence of breeding (a female carrying food) was not observed until 1899 (Grinnell 1900), and the first nest was not found until 1928 (Bailey 1948).
		While much is known about the Bluethroat in Europe, within Alaska it is practically unstudied; its range in Alaska is not well known, and breeding activity has been recorded in relatively few locations.

	White-spotted Bluethroat - Ness Point, Lowestoft
		I contend that I then said "It's a Bluethroat!", the two Roberts on the other hand say swear words were involved, though I'm sure they must be mistaken.
		We then retrieved our telescopes from the cars and were treated to excellent views of a male White-spotted Bluethroat as it fed in the open with a Northern Wheatear in a rubble and rubbish strewn drainage ditch.
		It was reported again at dawn the next day in the Birds Eye car park but could not be located later, but the weather was much worse than the day before, and there are plenty of inaccessible and sheltered spots around the sewage and gas works where it could have hidden undetected.

		Then there is the narrator of the book, Harry Bliss, breaking out of years of mourning and celibacy, in an act of desperate coupling with his best friend's 19-year old daughter in a Norfolk graveyard.
		Bluethroat Morning can be read as an accomplished and gripping gothic mystery, as the story of Harry Bliss's journey out of the halfway house of his grief and incomprehension, and also as an exploration of one woman's relationship to beauty, fame, love and death.
		Most memorably, however, Bluethroat Morning is a novel about writing a novel.

		He is determined to visit Glaven, the small English town where Alison lived before she walked into the ocean one "bluethroat morning," and discover what exactly led up to her death.
		This is the lynchpin that drives Harry to the understanding that he must find out what happened in the two weeks before Alison's death, while she was on working holiday at the resort town of Glaven, in order to get on with his own life.
		Bluethroat Morning is plotted with such an intricacy that the reader will start seeing symbolism in every word (how much of it is red herring I will leave to you to discover) and start reading ominous gestures into every action taken by every character, major or minor.
