Common Chaffinch Norfolk Woodlands.. by Adam Swaine Via Flickr: Male chaffinches are colourful birds with an orange-pink breast and cheeks, grey-blue cap and orange-brown back. Females are much duller brown with hints of green and yellow.The Chaffinch is one of the most widespread and common birds in Britain and Ireland. Its patterned feathers help it blend in when feeding on the ground, so it's easiest to see when it flies, as a flash of white on the wings and white outer tail feathers is revealed. It's shy when it comes to bird feeders, preferring to hop about under the bird table or under the hedge. You'll usually hear Chaffinches before you see them, thanks to their loud song and range of calls

I love Magpies, they just hang around your street in their little gangs (called Mischiefs) like feathered miscreants, iridescent ragamuffins, antisocial wee lads in search of bugs.

Today we grace your digital screens with a lovely pair of European dippers, also known as Water Crows or Pyets (the Scottish name).

The Naturalist’s Library praises the beauty of the song of Cinclus aquaticus and describes its curious adaptations to living alongside human-made machinery:

“It may often be seen perched on the inner spokes of the mill-wheel, singing its low melody; and we have known it to breed within the passage of the torrent which drove it … They sport about the banks of the stream, flying short distances, and during flight utter their single monotonous alarm or call note. When about to alight they drop or splash into the pools or stream, and almost never at once settle on the stones or rocks. They are one of our most pleasing songsters, though from the lowness of the note it is not often observed; but to the angler, who plies his rod at all hours, and in the most sequestered scenes, it is a well-known and welcome strain…

Their breeding places are chosen near to the brook or river, and often in curious situations. The nest is generally constructed under some brow or overhanging rocks, or among the matted roots of a tree; at other times under some fall, which is projected over a space hollow, and comparatively dry within, or beneath the dam or weir which serves to turn off the water to supply machinery; and we have once or twice observed it under the very sluice of the millwheel.”
