If you manage to get out and about her are five birds to look out for. 🌾 The buzzard soaring on thermal currents overhead. The skylark climbing vertically into the sky, singing all the way up. The swallow threading between hedgerows on its way back from Africa. The kestrel hanging motionless in the wind, watching the grass below with eyes that can see ultraviolet light. And the yellowhammer — that flash of burning yellow on a summer hedgerow, singing its heart out on a wire. These are the birds of the British countryside. And the countryside is changing around them. 🎙️
