Saw this bird on my feeder today, admittedly new to the game. I’ve tried using the RSPB interactive tool to identify the bird with no success, unless I tripped up somewhere. First thought before consulting the tool was that it could be a dunnock but it doesn’t appear to match up with similar images of dunnock online.
If it’s really obvious then my apologies....!
If anyone can suggest a good way to identify birds easily (or more easily) please do, I would be grateful to learn.
Thanks in advance.
Hello Scraggadoo, as you have had your mystery bird identified, I do not need to. It is unusual to have them on the feeders, I only ever see mine on ground. Try this website, I find it quite good for ID. www.rspb.org.uk/.../ Good luck, and welcome to the forum from me up in the very far north of Scotland, in Caithness.
