Love the Merlin app! After some months of using it I'm getting better at identifying birds from their songs myself. This is a great piece, Maura. And really wonderful photo!
Went for a loooong walk with a friend today and heard the cuckoo (I don't believe I've ever heard it in May before) and I think larks, plus a black and white birb I did not recognise. Will download Merlin. Thanks.x

Thanks, George! Yes, you quickly learn to identify birds by songs. I knew a few but this is helping me notice so many more.
Terrific photos Maura!

Thanks, Bríd! Enjoy the app... I'm loving it.
Enjoyed this Maura. I’m Irish descent, and can relate to a lot of what you say. Such fascinating, complex creatures, birbs!
Thanks, Sharon! I've a good friend in Australia and I've heard the clatter of the birds where she lives, a noisy bunch! I enjoyed your piece also. 😀
Thanks Maura, good to hear.
