Back to the question, the commonest bird in my garden is the blackbird. I've got several firethorn (pyrocantha) bushes, and other berry bearing shrubs, the blackbirds live nearby and regularly come to strip my garden of every berry except the holly (bushes too spindly for the birds to pitch on) and the rosehips.

It used to be sparrow until next door decimated his privet tree.

At the moment it's chickens. Dead ones. The cats have been having a field day out there with at least 3 carcasses, of which, only 2 were provided from our fridge......
