Pheasants

The Robin

Scientific name is Erithacus rubecula

Robins are widely spread throughout the UK and can be found in hedgerows, woodland, parks and gardens. Characterised by its bright red breast it is common throughout the year. Juveniles don’t have a red breast-they are spotted with golden brown plumage. Robins are very territorial and will aggressively drive away any intruders.

 

 

The UK's favourite bird - with its bright red breast it is familiar throughout the year and especially at Christmas! Males and females look identical, and young birds have no red breast and are spotted with golden brown. Robins sing nearly all year round and despite their cute appearance, they are aggressively territorial and are quick to drive away intruders. They will sing at night next to street lights.

The Red Squirrel

The Red Squirrel

 

Scientific name  Sciurus vulgaris , the red squirrel is one of our favourite mammals but numbers are declining fast and it is now classified as an endangered species. It is found in coniferous forest and mixed woodland. The grey squirrel is mostly to blame for the reduction in numbers of the reds because the greys carry the ‘squirrel pox virus’ which is deadly to the reds. The greys are bigger animals and also compete with the reds for food and nesting sites.
