How?
|
How is it pitch black outside and I’ve got birds singing? Thought they all went to sleep at dusk time.
Fuck all to do with West Ham but I know we’ve got some diverse clever fuckers on board, and I’ve only noticed over the last few days.
Enlighten or splat

I remember a group a crow that would play keep-away with our dog's food and seem very organized in tormenting him.

I saw a sparrow hawk rip the fuck out of a pigeon the other week.
Brutal cunt of a bird.

Speaking of parrots, I get hundreds of those annoying parakeets roost on a tree in my neighbours garden (who encourages them by feeding them).
The most annoying birds ever. They shit everywhere and make such a racket.
I'm tempted to get some shot, but it won't dent in the numbers.

All corvids are very clever. They're 'our' parrots.

It's all to do with light, and eye size. If you listen to the dawn chorus, for example, you'll notice that the garden birds with the greatest pupil diameter start first, then follow in almost perfect 'eye order'. At dusk you'll notice the smallest garden birds settle earliest, whereas blackbirds are one of the latest, and geese etc... will often fly over in really very low light.

Crows down the Shoebury way are remarkable... saw about 10 of them fly down the beach.... peck off a mussel... fly over to the sea wall... drop it from a great height onto the concrete and then fly down and peck it all out.... absolutely thousands of crunched up mussel shells on the pathway by the gun emplacements over gunners park... remarkable animals

Disagree Tom mate.
Always a BIG corvid roost in the woods near LMH fossil HQ between late October and mid March.
The 'daws come in first, absolute minimum 300 of them followed by up to the same of number of carrion crows and then about 150 rooks.. That's minimum numbers.
King of the corvids, the ravens are making a come back to Essex. A pair have been routinely hanging about the mast at Kelvedon Hatch for a year or so.
Love a corvid , they'll outlive homo sapiens for sure.

I find rooks interesting birds. They are quite social whereas I see many a crow lonely foraging on a vast field.

Beautiful writing lowermarsh. I used to hear a cuckoo every spring without fail. Sadly it's becoming rarer.

Neanderthals are believed to have had high-pitched, nasal and loud voices.
