Bird of the Day - Magpie

Another brilliant birdwatching club today with some great spots! My little twitchers today were from Class 4. Our first bird spotted today was a female chaffinch feeding on the ground in the nursery playground - it stayed for ages and the girls did really well at identifying it by looking at the bird's colours and markings. Also spotted today were:

wood pigeons x2
black headed gulls
crow x2

and chosen as bird of the day by the children was....the Magpie (first spotted by Zoe)


Magpies can be spotted quite easily anywhere - they are black and white with a long tail and are very noisy - keep your eyes peeled for one this week. Until next time...
