This section, featuring
fifteen common garden birds will hopefully be
not only informative but also an enjoyable way of
finding out about the birds in your garden. It
is not meant to be an exhaustive list, more of
an introduction to beginners; a starting point
for anyone wishing to find out more about the
creatures around them.
When watching birds or other wild creatures,
it is not usually necessary to note down
(mentally or otherwise) every detail of a bird
you have just spotted for the first time. Too
often the time is not available to note more
than one or two details, but equally often
this can be enough: several features of the
goldfinch (above) are unique, a black, red and
white head, or black wings with a yellow
wing-bar would be enough to confirm that a
goldfinch was the bird which just visited your
garden.
