  • Lapwing
    The Northern Lapwing, also commonly known here in the UK as the Peewit, Green Plover, or just Lapwing, is a wader in the plover family.  Its rounded wings make it quite distinctive in the air.  It has a black crest, body plumage mainly black and white but having a green tint to its back feathers.  It’s also got the shortest legs of any other plover.<br/><br/> It’s a very migratory bird, however the UK is a bit unique as it is here year-round.  We have both breeders, passage migrants, and winter visitors.  You can see these birds both on coastal mudflats, and in fields further inland. Another tidbit on this bird is how it got its name of Peewit, which comes from its distinctive shrill calls.

  • European Goldfinch Juvenile
    A highly coloured finch with a bright red face and yellow wing patch. Sociable, often breeding in loose colonies, they have a delightful liquid twittering song and call. Their long fine beaks allow them to extract otherwise inaccessible seeds from thistles and teasels. Increasingly they are visiting birdtables and feeders. In winter many UK goldfinches migrate as far south as Spain.
