I know buggar all about birds but have been watching these little feckers for hours. Far more entertaining than watching Charlton in the good half of a game

Have seen this in the garden over the last few weeks, a Michaelmas Blackbird4 -
I've never heard that name for a Ringed Ouzel before so I looked it up. Suggested it was Dorset terminology.LargeAddick said:

It appears in all likelihood to be a male Leaf Shitting Woodpecker.Mendonca In Asdas said:

They make a terrible mess of my garden at the very end of summer and for some months after.1 -
FYI the difference between great tits and blue tits can be determined by the colour on their bonces.The Prince-e-Paul said:I know buggar all about birds but have been watching these little feckers for hours. Far more entertaining than watching Charlton in the good half of a game

I have a patrol of these apex predator bastards hang around my Manor
One of them dropped a rat, from height, into my back garden when I was showing some people round. I'm not going to lie, after we all screamed and shat ourselves I though raining rats was what comes before the 4 horsemen of the apocalypse
I call him Blitzkrieg, bringer of death from above15 -
Incredible! Sadly, they're being persecuted and numbers are falling fast. Nobody's being held accountable either because grouse farmers are extremely good at covering their crimesCarter said:I have a patrol of these apex predator bastards hang around my Manor

Had them in my garden a few times feeding on the Starlings

Quite an apt advert for a thread full of tits.

They are definitely increasing where I live, possibly because of them adapting their habitat and moving away from grouse havens but to be honest there have always been a lot of birds of prey round here and they have plenty of food, the poor noisy asbo starlings often get eaten as do collar doves, pigeons, mice and rats when they don't drop them, when I took that photo of Blitzkrieg there was another 2 of them in the garden looking like they wanted itLeuth said:

Little Golden Oriole I rescued from the middle of the road in France. Got a video of him eating maggots out my hand and out of a pot but can't upload them.
He ended up in the local wildlife sanstuary in the end, where the women thought he was a Kingfisher

Picture the scene. Your boy Leuth, 36th birthday, wants to go on the Abraham Heights cable car. His extremely reasonable partner observes that is it 26 quid each for a tourist trap. He sullenly agrees and tags behind as they pass back along the Derwent. And then he looks down.

Been waiting my whole life to see one of these. And it happens on my birthday!!
