Moorhen (Gallinula chloropus)

Stroud Canal.

 

Distributed throughout England, Wales, Ireland and south-east Scotland, Moorhens avoid high ground. British and Irish Moorhens are sedentary, occupying their lowland habitats year-round. In winter the population is swelled by birds migrating here from the Continent. (BTO).
