Cool. Woodpeckers are always nice to see. We have loads of them in woods that around our home. Goosehawks have nest under 1km from where we live. We see ravens also almost weekly. At our cottage they have nest on cross the bay cliff. Saw 2 of them chasing fem capercaillie through our plot last week

My random summer fact, discovered whilst staying with friends in Sweden, is that the population there is good & so people can hunt & eat capercaillie
Mind blown when there are only 582 in Scotland, & are one of our rarest birds
I’m still to see one husband remembers one that hung round

Not me—my only knowledge of capercaillie is related to the musical group. Had no idea they were named after an endangered game bird.

Taynuilt primary playground in the 70s
Talking to friends about the Swedish folk eating them, one elderly Scottish person divulged they had eaten a Capercaillie in their youth.
Apparently you need to stuff the cavity with apples when hanging to reduce the pine scented taste… who knew 🤷♀️

Weird coincidence I noticed earlier. All 3 lifers (birds I hadn't seen before) I've had in 2026 have 'ai' in name. Long-tailed Shrike, Quail & Baird's Sandpiper. Don't think I'll get a chance at Capercaillie. Citrine Wagtail probably best chance of others on the British List (still unlikely).

Eg har støtt meint at eit bra triks for å hugse noko er å synge det, men denne songen er det fremste moteksempelet eg veit om. Det første verset er berre alle firestava fuglenamn på engelsk, men når eg hugsar capercaillie og lammergeyer gløymer eg cassowary. To av tre verkar å vere maks.
