Bird #5

Bird #5A Dunnock – I’ve just done some reading up about this little bird (in my trusty Birds Britannica) and it is also known as a Hedge Spadger, which is such a great name!

Also is said to have a private life that is ‘perhaps the most complex known in British birds’ – basically lots of swapping and sharing!

  1. One of my favourite birds. Often mistaken and ignored as a juvenile robin or a house sparrow. I love their secretive behaviour and subtle colouring 🙂

  2. Beautiful! I think I never have seen one. According to my bird book these live in forests in Finland, though everywhere else in Europe they can be seen in parks and gardens.
