BW office window year-list

Assistant Editor Mike Weedon writes...

Last July Bird Watching moved to a new office at Lynchwood Business Park at the west side of Peterborough. From our desks, Matt Merrit and I can just about see out of the large, permanently-sealed windows. We can't quite see the ground, but we can see enough sky and the tops of enough trees to have a stab at a 'window list'.

So this year we are trying to have a birds-seen-from-the-window-while-we-are-at-our-desks-in-2008 list.

So far we are up to 27. Here they are:

Cormorant
Greylag Goose
Canada Goose
Mallard
Sparrowhawk
Kestrel
Golden Plover
Lapwing
Black-headed Gull
Common Gull
Woodpigeon
Feral Pigeon
Stock Dove
Green Woodpecker
Redwing
Fieldfare
Blackbird
Blue Tit
Great Tit
Starling
Magpie
Carrion Crow
Rook
Jackdaw
Greenfinch
Chaffinch
Goldfinch
