The Sound of the Birds

Posted on May 11, 2017 by Jennifer Inskip Kirkby

We had a beautiful morning this morning for our walk through the Park with birder Linda Jenkinson of Start Birding  Linda pointed out the different bird calls she heard, and gave us an idea of the differences and how to recognize them.   We also learnt a lot about the ‘life’ of a bird, how it acts at different seasons, and the different types of habitat.  Birds we heard (or saw)

Blackbird
Blackcap
Buzzard circling overhead
ChiffChaff
Crow
Coal Tit
Dunnock – used to be called a hedge sparrow
Goldcrest
Magpie
Robin
Starling
Whitethroat
Willow warbler
Wren, apparently one of the most common birds
Flock of racing pigeons
Wood Pigeon
