This morning I took the easy way to birdwatch – through my kitchen window.
It is a really good way to birdwatch as birds just ignore any movement inside the house.
I saw
2 blue tits
1 Rook
8 blackbirds
1 robin
- Robin in winter
3 chaffinches
4 thrushes
4 doves
1 seagull (walking with a limp)
21 tree sparrows>
1 dunnock
1 wren
5 starlings
-0-0-0–0-
My problem is that I found it hard to make sure theywere all tree sparrows. Does everyone know the difference. I haven’t submitted my sightings yet so don’t know if RSPB do distinguish between house and tree sparrows.
I saw a fleeting glimpse of a bird and was not sure if it was a wren or a dunnock. Later on I saw one wren and then a little later a dunnock. But it is difficult to distinguish between some birds isn’t it?
