It breeds in a variety of habitats in the UK, including arable farmland, wet pastures and upland hay meadows.

  • Goldcrest
    The Goldcrest has the pride of place as Europe's smallest bird, weighing as little as 5 grams. This member of the kinglet family is very similar to the Firecrest, but with its plainer face makes it pretty easy to distinguish between the two. </br></br> This bird is partially migratory, but this bird does stay year-round here in the UK. You can typically find this bird with flocks of tits in the winter months.

  • Common Crane
    The Common or Eurasian Crane is a medium sized crane that ranges across the northern parts of Europe and Asia. This bird became extinct in the UK in the 17th century, but now a smallish group are now breeding in the Norfolk broads. This population is reported to also be on the rise. The WWT Slimbridge is currently in the works to breed a small group of cranes in captivity with some remarkable success. Aims are to establish this bird in good numbers here in the UK once again.

  • Chaffinch
    The Chaffinch is a widespread finch across Europe, Asia, and northwestern Africa, being the most populous finch in western Europe. It can be said it is one of europe's prettiest finches, with a loud and varied song to match. The Chaffinch is not migratory here in Britain, and in the winter it will form loose flocks, sometimes quite large. They are also known to mix with the visiting Bramblings during the winter as well.
