Below Congleton Edge, on the Cheshire/Staffordshire border, the stars of our show are the pair of Pheasants, the cock pheasant having an unusually light coloured plumage, almost white, and the little flock of chaffinches. Robins and wrens are regular visitors, but I've only ever seen one sparrow in the garden.
What is funny is watching the pair of Jackdaws using the bird feeder. They are very fair in the way they take turns while the other waits on the fence. They knock seeds onto the floor where a wood pigeon comes and eats them.
In the field there are magpies- up to five (that's silver!) and a flock of seagulls at the bottom of the valley. A mob of about twenty rooks turned up in the field last week. I suppose they live in the woods on the Edge. The usual inhabitants of the field are the cows- but they don't really count as birds!
Cheers
