#FirstSeenAndHeard Hello Tuesday, #Bird Nerds! First Heard bird - Common Blackbird. First Seen bird - Red Wattlebird. Melbourne, Aust. #birdwatching #urbanbirds #urbanbiodiversity #birds inbackyards #wildoz #DawnChorus #birds #FirstBirdOfMyDay #Bird Twitter #MyFirstBird

First bird of my day: the patch of sky over the patch of remaining meadow is a riot of skylark song and beneath, the green is rushing to meet the feathered specks of joy, the candles of the Horse chestnut lit in a celebration of May. #FirstBirdOfMyDay #WhatsYours

Hannah Bourne-Taylor One of the female sparrows on the fat ball was #FirstBirdOfMyDay this morning. Shot one on the lawn the other day standing quite tall😀

Hannah Bourne-Taylor Female Blackbird was the #FirstBirdOfMyDay today.
I have an almost daily close encounter with this kestrel at the moment, sometimes the male flies out first but the female always waits until I’m right underneath.

Hannah Bourne-Taylor A very large crow at a petrol station on a very early dart to Cwm Mynach was #FirstBirdOfMyDay . Lots of bird song on arrival including my first cuckoo of the year😌

#FirstBirdOfMyDay is the common chiffchaff, this morning.

Hannah Bourne-Taylor #FirstBirdOfMyDay Sparrow flying up from mock orange bush to under the eaves next door. Then distracted from birds by dredger Admiral Day progressing down river, movement in sky caught my eyes, 3 swallows dancing like butterflies against the blue!😍(Blurry photo due to max zoom)

There were birds happily chatting & feeding off the melaleuca trees in my neighbourhood park this morning. First seen: magpies in my yard. First heard: lorikeets. 🐦😃 #birdwatching #BirdTwitter #FirstSeenAndHeard #BirdsOfTwitter #FirstBirdOfMyDay #birds #Ipswich #Qld #Australia

Hannah Bourne-Taylor The male blackbird on the fat ball was #FirstBirdOfMyDay just for a change (not). Had it to his self today, unlike the other day when he had a right kerfuffle with the female😧

Hannah Bourne-Taylor #FirstBirdOfMyDay Two ducks, I think, flying diagonally across my small window view (sorry for glare in photo). Or they might have been moorhens, both have been spotted in their pond by next door but one. 🙂 Time we planned a pond for our back garden I think!

First bird of my day: the Dunnock, waking up, standing tall and straight almost on its tiptoes, it stretches its wings out, one after the other. #FirstBirdOfMyDay #WhatsYours

#FirstBirdOfMyDay Pigeons having their cooing competition. Clunks from Ravens trying to irritate the Red Kites. Chaffinch, Goldfinch, Wren, Blackbird.

(Still haven’t seen numbers of “Mouse Hartins”…🤞soon)

Hannah Bourne-Taylor First birds of my day : my little mates who always come to me for a treat when I walk this way with the dog #FirstBirdOfMyDay #WhatsYours

Hannah Bourne-Taylor Love that description 😍. Today my first birds were a variety of finches chirruping amongst the bluebells on this beautiful morning #FirstBirdOfMyDay #WhatsYours

#FirstSeenAndHeard Monday morning in Melbourne/Naarm, #Bird Nerds! First Heard - Australian Magpie. First Seen - Australian Magpie. #birdwatching #urbanbirds #urbanbiodiversity #birds inbackyards #wildoz #DawnChorus #birds #FirstBirdOfMyDay #Bird Twitter #MyFirstBird

Hannah Bourne-Taylor Snap Hannah. Heard a cooing whilst waiting for the tea too brew and looked out to see this guy sitting on Barmouth bridge to be #FirstBirdOfMyDay 😀

Hannah Bourne-Taylor The Horse Chestnut is coming into bloom here - a sign that high school exam season is about to start! Am gazing skywards hoping for a Swift but instead see a Herring Gull serenely gliding past. Sparrows still chirping; male Blackbird singing. A beautiful day. #FirstBirdOfMyDay

#FirstSeenAndHeard Saturday in Melbourne/Naarm, #Bird Nerds! First Heard - Spotted Dove. First Seen - Australian Magpie. #birdwatching #urbanbirds #urbanbiodiversity #birds inbackyards #wildoz #DawnChorus #birds #FirstBirdOfMyDay #Bird Twitter #MyFirstBird

First bird of my day: robin bright eyes in the pouring rain, head wet, bill muddy, not singing but hunting in the rain. #FirstBirdOfMyDay #WhatsYours

This morning's #FirstBirdOfMyDay was the magpie telling me to get up. And how right you were Mr Magpie, because skylarks. So many skylarks out this morning.
