Well, those are the only three birds that have been in the garden at all this week would you beleive and the reason it is in third place is because there has only been 1 in the garden.

However, on a good day there can be up to 5 or 6 at a time.

Hardly get any House Sparrows here on the edge of Durham City, they're all Tree Sparrows! So as I look out of the window right now it is:
1. Yellowhammer (7)
2. Tree Sparrow (6)
3. Robin (4)

After a recent severe thunderstorm we had a huge influx of birds, including 66 Greenfinches at one time. In the 20 minutes following the storm I counted 115 different birds all dropping in and we don't have a particularly large garden. I wonder whether they don't like thunder!!

1. House sparrow
2. Blackbird
3. chaffinch

The house sparrows are everywhere! It is brilliant considering they are hard to find in London and other big cities now.

House finch (40+)
Mourning dove (20+)
Scrub jay (8-10)

It's been a really down year all around for residents and migrants. Usually would have 30-40 chipping sparrows (we've had 15 max), 50-80 pinyon jays (< 20 flying over), 20-40 band-tailed pigeons (maybe 10 at any one time this year), and much higher numbers of hummingbirds (usually 4 species with 3 feeders going; have only had 1 feeder up all summer and only 3 spp have appeared).
