Hi,
Some of you may remember the Treecreeper I posted a couple of days ago. Well, after checking the usual sources I guessed that correctly. The new bird I spotted in my garden today however has me struggling for ideas. I heard the bird before I saw it, never heard a call like it, a repetitive barking chirp, vaugely reminiscent of a Pheasant but shorter and repeated 5 or 6 times. The resident Chaffinches and Tits didn't seem bothered by it so presumably not a bird of prey. Any ideas please:
Thanks,
Mark |=)|
