  • Meadow Pipit
    A small, brown, streaky bird, it is the commonest songbird in upland areas and its high, piping call is a familiar sound. In flight it shows white outer tail feathers and in the breeding season it has a fluttering parachute display flight. In winter they are quite gregarious and gather in small flocks, often invisible among the vegetation, suddenly flying up with typical jerky flight. Meadow pipit numbers in the UK have been declining since the mid 1970s, resulting in this species being included on the amber list of conservation concern.

  • Iceland Gull
    A medium-size gull, smaller than most herring gulls. It has a rounded head and smallish beak, giving it a dove-like expression. It has very pale plumage and white wing tips, and, like the glaucous gull, it is sometimes referred to as a 'white-winged' gull. It is a winter visitor, with small numbers of birds, usually seen singly. It breeds in the Arctic and winters as far south as New York and Britain.

  • White Winged Crossbill
    The white winged crossbill is a resident of the pine forests of North America, with their european counterpart spread across the northern regions of Europe and Asia.  With their specialist bills, they mainly eat the seeds of pine cones.  This bird is mainly resident, but will irrupt into more southern parts of the US when the food in their ranges runs scarce.  They seem to move around more than their european counterpart, the Two Barred Crossbill.</br></br>  What is interesting about this bird is that they are opportunistic breeders, meaning they breed whenever the conditions favor it and their food sources abundant.  They have been know to breed in all 12 months of the year, according to All About Birds website.
