"I thought you might like this video.
It's a compilation of different birds singing. Beautiful photography. If you expand the 'title' under the video it gives a list of species and the times they pop up in the video. Most of the species are familiar to us in the UK, but there are some 'exotics' (the cranes - wow, what a noise!) It was filmed in Belarus. The guy has a channel you can subscribe to. Anyway, I hope you enjoy it and maybe it'll take your mind off you-know-what for a few blessed minutes."

Had a mob of about 30 starlings on my fatballs yesterday. Lovely winter plummage on them.

"Decent As a kid in the 70's was not that unusual to see LSW, GSW, greenwoodpecker, nuthatch and treecreeper in the same day. Didn't really think much of it at the time."

"Lab 9.24 Goldcrests are very unafraid of.humans they just know we lose no threat. About 10 years ago I found a dead goldcrest next to my motorbike, almost certainly it had crashed into a window somewhere between the 4th and 6th floors of where we living. Gave it a little burial with my toddler kid at the time. Rang up the old dear LMH to tell her and freakishly the same day she'd had a goldcrest kamikaze into a window. Fortunately after a few dazed minutes in her hands it fucked off to the tree tops."

Pickle 1243 the lack of self awareness is worthy of academic research as is the fact that goldfinches in my garden go nowhere near the niger seed feeder which they are supposed to get addicted to and demolish the sunflower hearts instead.

"A few feet away from watching a goldcrest finding food on leaves , three occasions it was like a humming bird . A sparrow hawk also flew past me a couple of yards away about three foot off the ground , Silent glide looking for a kill before bedtime."

"Kenzo, just took his dog for a run out that his dog needs to have, he deliberately went out early In the hope he would avoid confrontation with other animals but unfortunately on this occasion nature was cruel even by the fact badgers are night creatures so it should have been safe in it‚Äôs set. I am always sad to hear nature take it‚Äôs deadly role when it seemed unnecessary but by having dogs as pets and keeping them from forming packs limits this event taking place. Once a dog gets a sniff they are back to instinct and rarely your anymore, you know this Pickle so stop being a cսnt looking to make things worse than they are because you are disliked & mocked on here, YOU built this situation by your own sick posting history."

"A swan crash landed into our works car park yesterday afternoon, made a bit of a noise. Two others landed and just looked at it. All three had rings on their legs. 20 mins later they had gone."

Re: For WHO's birders
Yep. The comedy-squeaking-wheel song of the great tit is very noisy in my garden today. As well as the fluting song of goldfinches.
