Swinhoe's White-Eye

Swinhoe's White-Eye (Zosterops simplex, 暗绿绣眼鸟).

Small green bird which becomes increasingly difficult to spot as spring becomes greener. This one was nearly invisible except for its matching eye and collection of cobwebs, which is presumably being repurposed for nest-building.
