  • Bullfinch
    A finch usually located by its sad tones, the bullfinch is best looked for at woodland edges. It has in the past been considered a pest in orchards as it favours eating buds off the trees. But due to recent declines in numbers, this is no longer strictly the case.</br> It's a mainly resident bird in its breeding range, with some of these birds moving a bit further south in the winter. They are resident in the UK year round. You will also find this bird in europe and the temperate regions of asia.

  • 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.

  • Atlantic Puffin
    An unmistakable bird with its black back and white underparts, and distinctive black head with large pale cheeks and a tall, flattened, brightly-coloured bill. Its comical appearance is heightened by its red and black eye-markings and bright orange legs. Used as a symbol for books and other items, this clown among seabirds is one of the world's favourite birds. With half of the UK population at only a few sites it is an Amber List species.

  • 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.

  • Common Gull
    It looks like a small, gentler version of the herring gull, with greenish legs and a yellow bill. Despite its name, it is not at all common in some inland areas, though often abundant on the coast and in some eastern counties. They are now seen more often in towns and on housing estates in winter.

  • Redwing

The sexes are similar, with the most striking feature being the red flanks and underwing, in addition to the creamy white streak over the eye. They are migratory, they only visit the UK in the winter.<br/> They often form loose flocks of 10 up to 200 or more birds. Frequently seen in the company of Fieldfares.
