First Bird of My Day: with the song of a blackbird in the tree above, a magpie struts, hops and flies around the school playing field, searching for insects in the grass. #FirstBirdOfMyDay

As the Song Thrush sang, the mixed tit flock - including a Coal Tit - came in.

Jackdaws, a group of six around a chimney stack, quietly paused in their morning after a showery dawn. Then one tchaked and flapped at another (play fighting?) and they all flew off about their business of the day.

#FirstBirdOfMyDay was a high speed Blue Tit closely followed by another. Love is in the air despite the heavy showers in Hampshire today 🪶

Several Blackbirds perched on several TV aerials, territory spacing? 2C here with a white frost, rain forecast for later.

#FirstBirdOfMyDay my regular garden wood pigeon has found a mate, and they’re ‘courting’ on the garden wall 😊

They are so brazen aren’t they.

carolynjane.bsky.social•5 days ago

They certainly are!

#FirstBirdOfMyDay: American robin hopping across the lawn; the ground is covered in worm castings, so plenty of hunting opportunity for him.

First bird of my day: my Turkey Tom gobbling loudly because the sun is up and I haven't fed him.

Bluetits flitting back n forth between the feeders and the hawthorn hedge on a damp morn.

A very wet start. The sun has now come out and a female blackbird came to the water tray. #FirstBirdofMyDay

Blackbird singing - first morning this year

jacksni.bsky.social•5 days ago

3 Curlews in flight and calling over the beach at Retamar. So reminiscent of my life in Yorkshire.

Blackbird sitting on the stump of a pruned rowan branch in the back garden from the bed having a cup of fennel tea.

Two goldcrests this morning, either courting or fighting in the yew tree - couldn’t tell in the gloom of first light.

lou65broad.bsky.social•5 days ago

A male blackbird first thing this morning, startled off the lawn when I let the dogs out. Sorry, Tom. (If it was you). #FirstBirdOfMyDay

#Firstbirdofmyday a Pair of Chaffinches hanging about in the hedgerow near to the feeder on a cool, damp morning

Junkos flitting about the berry bushes.

I’ve never seen/heard a skylark. A little jealous of you! 🥰

tycjanc.bsky.social•6 days ago

Wow! Have to wait for them here a little longer. In the meantime, we get to enjoy the chirping of the House Sparrows and the squawking of the Common Gulls 😺 #FirstBirdOfMyDay though was a Feral Pigeon eyeing up the sunflower seeds :)

ukulady.bsky.social•6 days ago

Walking morning near the 1000 steps close to home and a small group of superb fairy wrens hop searching by the path. Soon after a bronzewing pigeon burst out from the undergrowth just in front of me then waddled unhurriedly back to cover. #FirstBirdOfMyDay #WhatsYours

richardhalftwo.bsky.social•5 days ago

Which bronzewing?

ukulady.bsky.social•5 days ago

Just the Common Bronzewing. It’s the most widespread around here.

lou65broad.bsky.social•5 days ago

I love the way bronzewings lift up a wing to display their bronze ‘armpit’. See below my superb photo showing this behaviour.🤣

ukulady.bsky.social•5 days ago

Yes I’ve got many terrific photos like that😁
