First bird of my day: red kite soaring over the A44 looking like a flying Godzilla over the rooftops. #firstbirdofmyday #whatsyours

First bird of my day: a tawny calling in the dark. Going to be doing this at funny times of the day for anyone in the UK for a bit but I will share my #firstbirdofmyday in the hope you will tell me #whatsyours

The young raven was looking very beguiling as it perched on a solar lamp, a shimmer of sunshine highlighting its fluffy feathery breast. #firstbirdofmyday #whatsyours

First bird of my day: the displaced sparrows going round in a flock staring at their now-destroyed-home. I fought for that place for 3 years and got it delayed by 2 but it’s so surreal seeing it gone. #firstbirdofmyday #whatsyours

Three jackdaws on the chimneys of the roof opposite ('that' aerial) which haven't featured in my 1st birds in ages. 🙂
[Provisional/Temporary #FirstBirdOfMyDay #WhatsYours contingent on Hannah not being able to initiate🥇🐦 by a Bluesky post this morning]

First bird my day: a whole colony of displaced house sparrows freaking out as their home of decades is destroyed by diggers. Heartbreaking. #firstbirdofmyday #whatsyours

It works for me, Hannah 😄 A glimpse of a large black bird fly by the kitchen window, first thought was raven, then noticed some white feathers - magpie? Nope, ‘twas a currawong enjoying the cooler drizzly weather. Lots of them on the morning walk along the forest edge. #firstbirdofmyday #whatsyours

Looking through the window I saw the bottlebrush shivering in the drizzly rain but then I spied the red wattlebird in the branches. A weather-beaten snail climbed the yellowing leaves of a jonquil and a magpie carolled close by. #firstbirdofmyday #whatsyours

One raven flying overhead as I walked around the garden this morning. The other 2 ravens were on the pile of mulch digging for goodies, the young one making very funny noises😁 #firstbirdofmyday #whatsyours

A dull and soon to be very damp day here in SW Wales, brightened up significantly by the sight of the same beautiful bird I see first every morning at the moment.... It's that Jay again! Hold on, there's 2 of them!

My magpies carolling from the top of a very tall gum tree 2 houses away. They spot me coming out of the door but don’t bother flying over as they can see I’m on the way up the path - no scraps today ☺️ #firstbirdofmyday #whatsyours

A solitary cockatoo flying silently across the blue sky. The raven family flew past minutes later in the opposite direction, aarking, but softly as befitted the calmness of the day. #firstbirdofmyday #whatsyours

First bird of my day: a wren in the mist (like a tiny version of Gorillas in the mist. #firstbirdofmyday #whatsyours

A parroty sort of morning. Rainbow lorikeets in the budding elm, 2 king parrots flying across the garden and crimson rosellas in their usual trees. #firstbirdofmyday #whatsyours

First bird of my day: a perfectly dry wren light up by a moment of light within a dripping wet ivy-clad wood. #firstbirdofmyday #whatsyours

First bird of my day: starling. Just one. Beautiful. #firstbirdofmyday #whatsyours

Three pink galahs being blown around by the wind eventually managed to land on the power lines, 1 on the front wire and 2 on the back wire in a perfect V formation. #firstbirdofmyday #whatsyours

Wisps and shadows of birds in the forest as we walked this morning and then the mellow yellow of my favourite eastern yellow robin brazenly zigzagging in front of us. Bonus sighting of 3 little lyrebirds, the male with fluffy tail feathers so soft and beautiful. #firstbirdofmyday #whatsyours

The young raven with a tasty morsel in its beak, hopping over to the handrail then up on to the roof - breakfast with a view. #firstbirdofmyday #whatsyours

First bird of my day: a red kite flying low and in circles over a front garden which looked a bit ominous. #firstbirdofmyday #whatsyours

A cackling V of greater white fronted geese (which we call 'kolgans') #firstbirdofmyday #whatsyours
