During a single cup of coffee in my backyard: great tit, bluetit, robin, blackbird, greenfinch, house sparrow, wren. Loving my overgrown, not golfcourse perfect, lawn and shrubs.

From my observations this morning, I would say that crows are a peacemaker within the bird community.

Rook.

It was a pleasure to see these birds up close by the visitors' centre. I think most people walked straight past them, but they're lovely birds.

Herring gull and coot chick.

When I was at #slimbridge a few weeks ago, I witnessed a herring gull swoop down onto a coot's nest and pluck out a chick. It then carried off the baby coot and stopped in front of a group of visitors, myself included and swallowed the chick. It was very sad to watch, but unfortunately chicks are frequently predated by a variety of animals.
