Raptors to Raptors

Joshua Hill (j.hill) on: My bird watching Blog

A raptor is a different name for a bird of prey the British birds of prey include of loads of sub species like owls and one of the most common,falcons.

This week I will be writing about the different birds of prey England has to offer and here is a little taster of what's coming up in the week:

Kestrel

The Kestrel is probably known for its hunting methods of its continues hovering that it does to catch its mammal prey. It has became more regular that you see this alpine hunter feeding in its natural habitat because of recent,successful conservation efforts.

Berwick's swan

Joshua Hill (j.hill) on: My bird watching Blog

As you may have read the Berwick's swan is the smallest of the swans but still size doesn't matter as still being small it has a great story to tell.

Habitat 

This bird usually can be found in large lakes with sum form of vegetation or shrub a great example of this is at Slimbridge wwt that has both a large portion of water and wild growing Shrub.

Food

Feeds on vegetation,fish and small invertebrates that lye on the bottom of the silt that has settled on the bottom of the water.  

Chicks 

The chicks or goose lings of the Berwick's swan are how can I say CUTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

cute!!!!

Fun Fact:Peter Scott was the man who started  a project called the Berwick project this was a projected of finding individual factors of different  swans from each other.

What a racket !

Grace Carvell (g.carvell) on: Life inside the tank

There's a very strange noise around the Tank.

Its a whaling sound followed by a plink, plink sound.

I can see something, perhaps I will swim round for a better view.

Oh its only Luke playing his Ukele.

I wish I had some ear plugs !

Thinking about it, I wish I had some ears to put them in as well !
