Somewhere In The Ether…

I spotted a delightful little Nuthatch in my garden this morning having not seen one for years (hoping for a Treecreeper next!)

Any less common sightings from fellow ornithology fans here?

That’s lovely. I hope they’re making a comeback.

I see lots of rare birds in here.

"I watched seven red kites circling overhead last summer "

You’d love it here - we have these majestic birds in abundance as it served as the main centre (as far as I’m aware) for their reintroduction breeding.

They’ve actually become rather tame in many instances to as so many people have left food out for them in their gardens in order to observe them swooping down (they’re notoriously inaccurate but it’s a wonderful sight)

Can anyone here make me jealous and boast to seeing a cuckoo recently? I haven’t even heard one for about ten years(!)

Have a red kite that circles over the houses here that a regulary watch from my garden.

Lots of tits.

Swifts and many more more.

I just hate it when there's only one magpie.

Saw one last year, first time in about a decade. I was in the backs of beyond though when I did.

So the story goes, the late Bruce Forsyth was so superstitious as regards the sight of a solitary magpie that he was reluctant to leave the house if he so witnessed it

I am suitably jealous They used to be regular visitors quite near me but have sadly, like so many other species, fallen silent in recent years

Seeing some lovely tits, thrushes, finches and other twig-flitters in the hedges and in the tree outside my flat over the past few months.

Song Thrushes used to be very common here but even they appear only seldom visitors now.

Starlings to; when I was growing up they used to descend into my family’s garden in scores but if I see even one or two now it is a rare occurrence
