Like many we have the occasional bird hit our windows. I do wonder however
why it is that many are the less common species, at least that is my experience.
Yesterday it was a Goldcrest found dead on the path, today a bright male
bullfinch round the other side of the house, albeit he flew off unsteadily to
collect his thoughts in the silver birch. Before it has been Goldfinch and Great
Spotted Woodpecker that lived to fly another day. Why is it never the Sparrows,
Blackbirds Tits and Robins that breed in the garden and are seen in much greater
numbers?
