Dawn Chorus Day in 2022

It's international Dawn Chorus Day! Bird song is in full swing, as is bird nesting. For those who weren't up with the lark, here is a lovely nest of Skylark, a ground-nesting species found often in grassland. The adult bird was in full song over head. #internationaldawnchorus https://t.co/iDU9cp21Cq

So, having done a full 7 hour Dawn Chorus shift from midnight last night, I certainly didn’t expect to be seeing my first Irish Serin this a’noon at Churchtown in Wexford. I re-located it sheltering from the rain in the old graveyard. It’s been a long but good day. https://t.co/m7WdpL7ni4

Happy #DawnChorusDay everyone! Did you know the first ever International Dawn Chorus Day event was held at our Moseley Bog nature reserve back in 1987? Now the event is celebrated the world over, with people waking at dawn to enjoy the finest spring symphony of birdsong! https://t.co/sn323cfCOd
