  • Great-crested Grebe and babies
    The Great Crested Grebe is an excellent swimmer and diver, the young able to do so almost immediately after hatching. The adults are unmistakable in summer with bright rusty colors on their head and neck. The hatchlings are striped black and white, much like a zebra. It is the largest grebe in europe.<br/> The species was almost hunted to extinction in the 19th century, but thanks to the RSPB, it is now a common sight.

  • 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.

  • White Winged Crossbill
    The white winged crossbill is a resident of the pine forests of North America, with their european counterpart spread across the northern regions of Europe and Asia. With their specialist bills, they mainly eat the seeds of pine cones. This bird is mainly resident, but will irrupt into more southern parts of the US when the food in their ranges runs scarce. They seem to move around more than their european counterpart, the Two Barred Crossbill.</br></br> What is interesting about this bird is that they are opportunistic breeders, meaning they breed whenever the conditions favor it and their food sources abundant. They have been know to breed in all 12 months of the year, according to All About Birds website.

  • South American Pochard
    The South American Pochard is a sociable and gregarious bird of the pochard familiy. It has a broken range across much of South America. This duck can gather in to groups as many as 5,000 birds. Its numbers are doing well, therefore both it and its African subspecies counterpart, the African Pochard, are listed as least concern.
