RE: What Birds do you get in your Garden on an Average Day?

I get...
starlings,
starlings,
and more starlings...upto 60 at a time, i have 2 hand tame ones now that feed from my hand.
They are looked upon as pests but they really are quite commical and very clever birds,although other birds get panicked by the noise and volume of them.
Robin,
sparrow
Dunnock
Pied wagtail
Blue tit
Great tit
Blackbird
Collared doves
Wood pidgeon
Sparrowhawks.

Last year i had loads of greenfinch but i think alot of them got killed by that virus,and i noticed that they had a lot of ticks and that was put down to the dry season we had.
Also last year we had goldfinch, but this year none! i dont think they liked the starlings either.

All except Bullfinch nest in mine/neighbours Garden which is great. The Magpies do tend to ruin the Collared doves, they did not succeed at all last year. I also think Starlings are great, i could listen to them all day.

Starling.
House sparrow.
Dunnock.
Wren.
Coal tit.
Blue tit.
Great tit.
Bullfinch.
Blackbird.
Collared dove.
Magpie.
Jackdaw.

Strange how everyone has more or less the same species but live in different parts of the country.

I regularly have:
Blue tit
great tit
dunnock
robin
chaffinch
collared dove
herring gull
blackbird
wren
rook
jackdaw
greenfinch.

Went outside to put my ringing nets away at dusk and had a WOODCOCK flying overhead this evening! Good garden tick!
