Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Jackdaws - smart grey head, sleek black body, ice blue eye and full of intelligence and personality :-)

Gadwall - understated elegance at its finest :-)

Pheasant - bloody stupid birds if you ask me ;-)

Ooooo loving reading what people think of different birds, and why.

Bittern are a massive favourite due to so many fun memories attached to them. Boom! Same with Dippers. And Barn Owls. And pokey pokey birds (Godwit)

Love a Pied Wagtail - they’re my newest obsession to watch.

Can’t beat tits (ooo errr 😂) for watching their daft behaviour.

Pheasants are stupid, but the male is such a awesomely coloured bird.

I love listening to a bit collection of lapwing ‘peeewit’ at each other - and greenshank and redshank... love their noises.

I quite like woodpigeons too. Sometimes it’s all I get to see during the day in our garden! 😂

Not sure what I’m less keen on..... Canadian Geese and Mute Swans maybe.
