  • Meadow Pipit
    A small, brown, streaky bird, it is the commonest songbird in upland areas and its high, piping call is a familiar sound. In flight it shows white outer tail feathers and in the breeding season it has a fluttering parachute display flight. In winter they are quite gregarious and gather in small flocks, often invisible among the vegetation, suddenly flying up with typical jerky flight. Meadow pipit numbers in the UK have been declining since the mid 1970s, resulting in this species being included on the amber list of conservation concern.

  • Mistle Thrush
    Found in open woodlands and cultivated land all over europe and much of asia, the mistle thrush is similar in appearance to the song thrush. However this bird is larger than the song thrush, and has neat round spots as opposed to the well-known heart-shaped spots of the song thrush. The breast is also much less buff. The song is a simpler version of the blackbird song, and the alarm call similar to rapid gunfire.

  • Red Knot
    The adult Red Knot has short dark legs and a medium thin dark bill. Their body is mottled gray on top with a reddish face, throat and breast. In the winter it is pale gray all over. <br/><br/> There are 6 subspecies of the knot, one of which is severely endangered. The American subspecies has been predicted to be extinct as early as 2010 due to overfishing of their primary food source – the horseshoe crab in the Delaware Bay, a primary stopover point for this migrating bird. <br/><br/> This bird visits the UK shores in the winter, migrating south to Africa, and the areas surrounding Australia. <br/><br/>

  • Tufted Duck - eclipse
    The Tufted duck is a year-round resident here in the UK, and in winter we're also home to many migrants from further north. This diving duck has an estimated worldwide population of over a million birds, spread throughout much of eurasia. This bird in the winter months can also be found on the east coast of North America. </br></br> The only other similar bird is the Ring-necked duck in North America.
