First bird of my day: a heron who I’ve been seeing a lot over the past few days, gliding like a terradactyl reminding me of my place. #FirstBirdOfMyDay #WhatsYours

First bird of my day: a woodpigeon landing on the birdbath and sipping delicately as it keeps an eye out for danger. #FirstBirdOfMyDay

2 jackdaws, tchaking, in flight towards me & going over the house, on opening the frontdoor. Layer of grey cloud over all birds, but it won't rain! Humans here back to normal after a 2.5 day water supply outage affecting 100k+ residents, avians not as lucky!!

On an oppressive, gloomy, grey morning, a solitery dunnock, with a matching grey hood, exploring about the lawn was my first bird. But it was soon joined by the sparrow gang livening up the morning. #FirstBirdOfMyDay

Woo-HOOOO-woo-wuh-hoo - guess who I saw this morning from my kitchen window, calling to anyone who’d listen? Btw, this morning I can hear sparrows, great tits, blue tits and the odd corvid. I thought everyone had abandoned the park! #FirstBirdOfMyDay

2 currawongs calling with their evocative cry, swirling in tandem around the top of the gums next door and completely distracting me from the much closer red-wattle bird gorging on the pink camellia just near the window. #FirstBirdOfMyDay #WhatsYours
