BIG GARDEN BIRDWATCH – MY RESULTS

Posted on January 30th, 2010 in Watching Birds by Trish

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 seagull (walking with a limp)

21 tree sparrows>

1 dunnock

1 wren

5 starlings

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?
