WOODPIGEON // COLUMBA PALUMBUS (41cm)
A PLUMP BIRD, of lightly wooded open country, its song is a familiar sound of the countryside, as is the loud clatter of wings heard when a bird flies off in alarm. This is one bird that has not suffered under the regime of modern farming, and the popularity of oilseed rape as a crop has been of particular benefit. Easy to find and resident in all the U.K and all year round, although sizeable flocks are evident mainly in winter. Seen at Reculvers, Kent, grooming itself.

Am trying to capture all birds seen this year, so a few common ones have to be posted, every now and then!

THANK YOU for you visit and support, please leave a comment, love reading them, will return the visit very soon.
...........Stay safe and God bless..................Tomx.
