Great Spotted Woodpecker
The drumming of the Woodpecker’s beak on wood, about 10-16 strikes per second, lets their mate know where they are and marks out their territory. Luckily they have shock-absorbing tissue between their bill and skull. Or…chiropractor. All Woodpeckers drum, but...

Blackbird
We love the friendly, orange-beaked Blackbird, coming out to sing after the rain, wrestling worms from the ground, raising everyone’s spirits with its chirpy mood. Did you know they can actually hear a worm moving just underground? So now when...

Hummingbird
Is there a bird out there that packs more punch? The Ruby-Throated Hummingbird weighs in at around .1 of an ounce – that’s the weight of a couple of paperclips – but size be damned, they’ll ferociously attack other birds...

Kingfisher
The Kingfisher’s impressive bill is not just pretty, it’s a mighty weapon in the fight to defend territory and help them dive for fish. They also use it to make burrows – they fly straight at a decaying trunk and...

Fantail (Piwakawaka)
The pretty fanned tail of Fantail, or New Zealand’s Piwakawaka, gives it amazing acrobatic abilities, like changing direction instantly and flipping upside down to nab a bug under a leaf. When you’re hiking in the bush or working in the...

Wren In Love
Wrens, like humans, express love best in song (without the cheesy lyrics). As well as impressive singing, Wren courtship involves building. The male Wren half-builds lots of nests and takes the female on a tour of them in the hopes...

Kookaburra
The onomatopoeically-named Kookaburra’s ‘laugh’ might sound human to you, but to another bird it’s a clear call to ‘get lost’. The largest Kingfisher in the world, Kookaburra feeds mostly on insects, but it’s also partial to small snakes and frogs....

Long-tailed Tit
How cute can a bird get?? The Long-tailed Tit looks like a cottonball on a stick, flitting acrobatically around our woodlands and gardens with its distinctive eyestripe and pink underbelly. Not just pretty though – they’re noisy – and, like...

Magpie
After pigeons, Magpies are the most vilified bird in the UK. Well, we’re putting it out there that they deserve a little admiration. For a start, for their incredibly striking black-and-white plumage. Next, their ultra-versatility; at once scavengers, predators and...
