  • Great Cormorant
    The Great Cormorant is a very large black bird. With a longish tail and yellow throat patch, the adults have white thigh patches in the breeding season. It can be distinguished from the very similar Shag by its lack of green tinge and lack of crest. An extremely wide spread bird, its breeding range extends all over europe and asia, south across africa, to the atlantic coast of North America.

  • Winter Wren
    The wren is the most common of britain's breeding birds, and with the loudest voice by far in comparison to its size. It's not britain's smallest bird, as that falls to the goldcrest, but this is still a remarkably tiny bird. Most commonly located by its boisterous warbling call, it can easily be identified by its cocky little tail which is cocked up vertically.</br> Of the 27 eurasian subspecies and 12 north american subspecies, britain is home to 3 subspecies. One is limited to the island of St. Kilda, another to Shetland, and the last to Fair Isle.</br> True to its latin name, during the harsh cold winters, it resides in dark holes or caves, sometimes huddling with other individuals to keep warm.

  • Garden Warbler
    A very plain warbler with no distinguishing features (a feature in itself!). It spends a lot of its time in the cover of trees and bushes and can be more difficult to see than its relative, the blackcap. Despite its name it is not really a garden bird, except in mature gardens next to woods. Its song is similar to that of a blackcap, but has longer mellow phrases.

  • Curlew
    The Eurasian Curlew is the largest of all the waders in its range, at 50-57cm in height with a generous 1 meter wingspan. What makes this bird especially unique to Britain is that it’s one of the only places in Europe where it does not migrate, staying year round. In the winter they tend to gather in good-sized groups, though very wary of any disturbances. <br/><br/> The only similar bird in its range is the Whimbrel, which is generally a smaller bird with a shorter, more downturned bill compared to the smooth downward curve of the curlew.<br/><br/> This bird is mainly greyish brown, white on the back, and a very long curved bill.

  • Blackbird
    The blackbird male lives up to its name, however females are a streaked or spotted brown. The males have a bright orange-yellow beak and eye-ring. The blackbird is one of the most common of UK birds and its mellow song is a favorite. -rspb
