  • Blue Tit
    The Blue Tit is a popular garden visitor here in the UK, with vivid yellow, green and blue colors, making it easily recognized. It's also usually the first to be attracted to feeders as they'll come readily to any nut feeder placed in a suitable spot. In the winter they flock with other varieties of tits. These do not migrate here in the UK, being here all year round.

  • Eurasian Coots
    All-black and larger than its cousin, the moorhen, it has a distinctive white beak and 'shield' above the beak which earns it the title 'bald'. Its feet have distinctive lobed flaps of skin on the toes, which act instead of webs when swimming. It patters noisily over the water before taking off and can be very aggressive towards others.

  • 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.

  • Buzzard
    The Common Buzzard is a wide-spread member of the buteo family, ranging across europe and spilling over into Asia as well. It is mainly an opportunist hunter, going for small mammals and carrion. What's surprising about this bird is that you can find it perched on the ground in a field, sometimes with many other buzzards, hunting for worms and insects.</br> This bird can easily be confused with the rough-legged buzzard in Europe. Here in the UK, the plumage can range widely from almost pure white to almost pure black. But most of the birds in the UK are a rusty brown with a speckly brown belt across a pale breast.

  • 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.
