Bird Spotting on Our Land


We have lots of birds on our land including birds of prey. There is a Woodpecker who has lived here for a few years and is spotted regularly, sometimes at the back of the house or in the garden but usually it is pecking the walnut tree. However, the other day my young Son came rushing in asking for the camera as he had found an unusual bird which even Grandad with all his knowledge couldn't identify! My young Daughter took the photo's, they are not very clear as the bird wasn't close enough. We have googled English birds and now think that this is a Red Legged Partridge, please do leave a comment if you can confirm it or recognise it as something else!
