Teal Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 It's a wren but I find it funny how people are saying they are rare? They are actually the most numerous bird in Britain!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wymberley Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 It's a wren but I find it funny how people are saying they are rare? They are actually the most numerous bird in Britain!! In one particular survey asking for the 'commonest bird', the best answer was judged to be Kerry Katona. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CharlieT Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 Too big for a baby wren - it's a spotted Flycatcher chick - wrens fledged 6 weeks ago. In Devon we call them Wren's, spotted flycatcher chick must be a regional name for them in your neck of the woods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sha Bu Le Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 Wren for sure We had one nest in one of our bird boxes for a few years. Probably not the same one I think they only live around 3 years. Someone will put me right if I'm wrong. Does not nest there anymore since the sodding council cleared the neutral zone between us and the cemetery. We also lost about 14 other species that visit sometime during the year when they cut the elder trees down. No shelter and a sparrowhawk patrols the cemetery. Council huh bunch of muppets.

four-wheel-drive Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 (edited) Looks like a wren to me. dont eat it all at once !!!!!!! Saying that some time ago Jeremy Clarkson did a TV program about France and he stopped at a place that cooked little birds like that you are supposed to eat them all in one go bones and all. I think he said it was against the law but that it something that I admire about the French if they do not agree with a law they just ignore it unlike the English who think that all laws must be made by god and so must be obeyed be they good or just plain stupid.
