  • Hardhead
    The Hardhead duck, sometimes still referred to as the White eyed duck, is the only true diving duck found in Australia. They are a common bird, and like other members of the pochard group, they feed by diving deeply for the aquatic creatures they feed off of. As a general rule these birds avoid costal waters.

  • Blackbird
    The blackbird male lives up to its name, however females are a streaked or spotted brown. The males have a bright orange-yellow beak and eye-ring. The blackbird is one of the most common of UK birds and its mellow song is a favorite. -rspb
    Pontllanfraith
  • Mistle Thrush
    Found in open woodlands and cultivated land all over europe and much of asia, the mistle thrush is similar in appearance to the song thrush. However this bird is larger than the song thrush, and has neat round spots as opposed to the well-known heart-shaped spots of the song thrush. The breast is also much less buff. The song is a simpler version of the blackbird song, and the alarm call similar to rapid gunfire.

  • Chough
    While its black plumage identifies it as a crow, the chough (pronounced 'chuff') has a red bill and legs unlike any other member of the crow family. It has a restricted westerly distribution in the British Isles and because of its small population size and historically declining populations it is an Amber List species. It readily displays its mastery of flight with wonderful aerial displays of diving and swooping. Found in flocks in autumn and winter.
    Skomer Island
  • Great Cormorant
    The Great Cormorant is a very large black bird. With a longish tail and yellow throat patch, the adults have white thigh patches in the breeding season. It can be distinguished from the very similar Shag by its lack of green tinge and lack of crest. An extremely wide spread bird, its breeding range extends all over europe and asia, south across africa, to the atlantic coast of North America.

Their face and neck are black with a thick white border, a black breast, black legs, and a dark rump. In winter, they have an off-white face and breast and white underneath. <br/><br/> What makes this bird special in the UK is an amazing 500,000 birds overwinter here.

It is pale grey above and white underneath, and there is a black mark at its shoulder where the folded wing meets the body.
