| Some screeching Swifts will have arrived already, but the majority will reach our shores in early May and will stay until late August. Meanwhile, Blackbirds, Song Thrushes and Mistle Thrushes are in full song. | The dawn chorus comprises male songbirds singing to attract mates, protect their territory and to warn off rivals. Also the early morning air is cooler and this helps the sounds to travel further. More>> | |
