All Birds

A bird of the forest usually found up in the canopy, will occasionally visit fields. Superficially like a Wood Pigeon but with a very different call, which may remind you of an owl.

A very common bird in all types of woodland below 1000m, in some places can constitute a nuisance. Sings “take two cows taffy…”

A relatively recent arrival in Europe, found mostly in association with human habitation. Sings “no stew cook”.

A summer visitor to the lowlands of Switzerland, found in semi-open woodlands, mostly restricted to the north. It has a distinctive rolling song that reminds me of warm summer days.
