I love sky larks.

Thank you!

As a birder in northeast america, literally all of these birds mentioned are relevant for shorebird ID in my area. (minus i guess wood sandpiper, though i care about that species too)

Great video, many thanks, hoping for a sighting of Hobby.

I searched up woody woodpecker 💀💀💀🪵🐦

June 17th 2024 Edinburgh definitely a nightingale consistent ripple lasted about 3 seconds each time😊

i think it may be a robin, singing throughout the whole night here in my home. sings very beautiful melodies, and then another birdy joins him, just briefly adds a little calll sound here and there ... have no idea what sorts birdies all are, its wonderful to listen to them ...

Thanks, very helpful! I may have found remains of an egg in the neighbourhood, possibly stolen by a jay.. redstart is best match I've found for the eggshell so far. Here in Israel they're normally on passage, not rare, and I've seen them locally a number of times. They don't usually stay to breed here but the habitat, suburban gardens, not impossible. Now I know what to listen for!

terrific videos, very helpful!

One thing I noticed was the white throat of the Lesser reaches under the eyeball, but in Common Whitethroat it's a couple of mm away from reaching it.

I have a male and female greater spotted woodpecker at my bird feeder several times thoughout the day. South east of ireland.. i am fascinated by them.

I also remember hearing about the corncrake when I was young coming from a farming background.

Can the nesting sights be moved to keep the eggs and the parents safe.

I can't remember ever hearing them but I heard about them a lot when I was young. Now fota wildlife park have been going out into the wild to collect the eggs and now they have 31 birds but they still have more eggs to hatch and that's brilliant news.

Really appreciate the side by side comparison photos and what to look for - too many "this vs that" do sequential images, which makes it difficult to truly compare / look back and forth to get it in your head. Well done! Clear, concise, very helpful. Thank you!

In 2012, we had 3 separate pairs of spotted flycatchers nesting near our garden one summer (in North Yorkshire). One in an open fronted box that I put up, one in an old potting shed and the third on the downpipe of the house next door (all within fifty yards of each other). I used to love watching them sitting on the overhead wires and darting to catch insects with that familiar flight pattern of theirs. I didn't realise at the time that the species was in such trouble. The open fronted box was used for about 3 years, until builders removed the ivy on the wall that was hiding it. The old pottong shed (not ours, alas) was replaced with a new one that was less open. In recent years, despite living in a house on the edge of a large National Trust garden (with lots of walls and climbers), I have only had fleeting glimpses of the species for a day or two. They are easily overlooked and perhaps I just haven't searched hard enough, but I haven't seen a nest here for about ten years and I really miss them, along with the swallows that used to nest here in good numbers. I didn't see a swallow nest last year. So sad, and would have been hard to believe just a decade ago, when I could usuallly see half a dozen nests, without looking too hard. Still looking out for spotted flycatchers arriving this year. I will try and put a nest box in a shady area with more cover and hope for the best.

Ok let’s be honest , I’m never going to visually differentiate between a tree and meadow pipit in the field, even if they were next to one another for comparison. I can’t even tell the difference in the ID books. It’s only going to be the song that tells them apart and the fact that it’s usually a meadow pipit one sees, and the tree pipits association with trees, although that can be misleading too!

I’m sorry, but who else LOVES these birds ! I am so fascinated in their flight and calls. Whenever there is a seagull, I would always be the only one to look up and actually enjoy the presence of these elegant birds. It’s sad to see that most of these birds are hated. 😢❤

So when do they sleep!?

Worth mentioning that if up close and can see the eyes, honey buzzard has yellow eyes and common buzzard has brown eyes.

I spotted one today in Rabat, he is so lovely 😍

For the last 5 years they were on Warsaw Poland at 10th of may. This year it's a 3rd of may. Always happy to hear them.

0:37 sounds a lot like "t-shirt-t-shirt"

Fabulous research and commitment

I saw two small white egrets together last week, maybe looking for a place to nest.

These ID videos are brilliant. Unfussy, clear and articulate. Thanks so much for sharing them.

Excellent video. Many thanks for this information.

All these gulls really need to get their act together, begin interbreeding, so they all look the same for us beginners to easily ID them. 😬

1:03 that fact about the Song thrushes using rocks like anvils blew my mind i never knew they did that incredible!

Saw my first sedge warbler today - at least, that’s what the Merlin app told me it was from its extremely loud and frantic song! Came here to check and I’m sure it was right. Very happy to have another bird to look out for on walks in the local water meadows 🙂

Great Tit - up n down like squeaky bed springs 😀

Good video but you seem to depart from normal language usage in leaving out definite and indefinite articles. I would no more think of saying 'Buzzard is a common raptor in the UK' than I would 'Ant is a common insect'.

Sorry but in what world does a blackbird, robin or sparrow SING AT NIGHT……. WRONG ……. GET FACTS RIGHT

That common VoiceOver finished it within 5 seconds for me

lovely explanation

They just arrived here in Barcelona!

Beautiful and easy to understand illustrations for correct identification of each species described in the clip. Wish I could give permission to translate the narration in to Hausa here in Nigeria where I am to share widely. Thanks and regards for making this video.

Fantastic

💗

3:02 "the spots point downwards". They look like they're pointing up to me.

If you could stop your mouth for 2 minutes whilst the mistle thrush was singing it would have been great.

Gorgeous curlews. Please save them.

The Daily/Sunday Express, a rightwing newspaper that supported UKIP which gave rise a bunch of climate deniers called Reform...I can only hope they learnt something from their environmental editor at the time; though somehow I doubt it.

There's a Blackbird singing outside my window. It's been singing since 2 a.m. There's a streetlight nearby.
