This morning, I woke up and thought that it would be a good day to go out to the grounds of my school campus (near York, England) and officially start my first "casual birding session". As I stepped out, I noticed that it was cold and foggy and probably not ideal for birding...
That did not stop me from doing what I wanted to do, however. I managed to stay for an entire hour outside (but quickly went back to my room because it was too cold for me) and was happy to see a few birds in such weather. Here is a full list of the species that I have seen today:
-Rook
-Dunnock
-Common Wood-pigeon
-White Wagtail
-House Sparrow
-Eurasian Blackbird
-European Robin
-Great Tit
All of these species are regulars over here (though great tits and Eurasian blackbirds aren't that common when compared to the others). I haven't seen any rare species so far, but these birds still made my day - especially the European robins and rooks that I had forgotten to take photos of. Here are a few photos of the birds that I have taken today (the quality for most of these images are bad because I don't have a professional camera, sorry).
