Funny looking bird

I have no idea what sort of bird this is, I've looked him up in my book of British birds, but he doesn't seem to be in there. 😕

To be quite honest, he is a regular visitor to our bird feeder. I actually think he is quite cute, just like a squirrel, but without the bushy tail.

He's lovely.....outdoors........do hope him and Jack don't meet up......

Lol, competing with my mousebirds from SA. I love the way it is staring at you and daring you to chase it away ;-)

Nice shot. Perhaps you can find him easier in the book of rodent.

Rattus rattus? Or mousus mousus?
Fab details and focus

They have mousebirds in Africa, perhaps perhaps you have discovered a ratbird. :)

I had an experience as an 8 year old when one of these jumped on me from a hay bale and landed on my chest. I am still having therapy.

It's a flightless ratticus, quite common everywhere.Fav😊
