  • 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.

  • Common Crane
    The Common or Eurasian Crane is a medium sized crane that ranges across the northern parts of Europe and Asia.  This bird became extinct in the UK in the 17th century, but now a smallish group are now breeding in the Norfolk broads.  This population is reported to also be on the rise.  The WWT Slimbridge is currently in the works to breed a small group of cranes in captivity with some remarkable success.  Aims are to establish this bird in good numbers here in the UK once again.

  • Bronze-winged Duck
    The Bronze-winged Duck, sometimes known as the Spectacled Duck, is often misplaced in the anas genus with other dabbling ducks, but it's actually a sole member of the speculanas.  It's closest relatives are thought to be the crested or brazilian ducks.  They live among the fast-flowing streams of the Andes, also found in Chile and Argentina.

  • Baikal Teal
    The Baikal Teal is a dabbling duck of Asia, overwintering in the eastern parts of Asia, such as Japan.  It has been suggested that it has no living relatives and should be placed in its own genus as its closest reltaives being the Garganey and the Northern Shoveler.  This duck is listed as vulnerable due to hunting and destruction of its wintering habitats, but it is suggested that its making a good comeback.
