The Blackcap is an unique greyish warbler, with a black cap on the male and a chestnut hat on the female. Its lovely fluting song has earned it the moniker "northern nightingale." Birds from Germany and north-east Europe are increasingly spending the winter in the UK, despite being primarily summer visitors.

The Blue tit, with its vibrant colours of blue, yellow, white, and green, is one of our most appealing and easily identified garden visitors. During the winter, family flocks join forces with other tits in quest of food. At any given time, a garden with four or five blue tits at a feeder may be feeding 20 or more.

The male, a little robin-like bird, is easily identified in spring by his bright Blue throat, which is bordered below by black, white, and chestnut bands.
Its centre throat spot can be white or chestnut, depending on whether you're looking at the 'white-spotted' or the more common 'red-spotted' subspecies. They may be fairly stealthy, flashing their chestnut tail patches into the protection of a shrub.

The male Brambling is similar in size and shape to the chaffinch, with a black head in summer and an orange breast with a white belly. It has a long white rump when flying. In the winter, it can form flocks of thousands and frequently congregates with chaffinches. Depending on food supplies, numbers can change between winters. It is classified as a Schedule 1 species.
