Loved this! I've got to get out of London more... craving to hear those bird calls. And i've never heard of a stock dove - so another new bird to add to my list!
We have Stock Doves here in Bucks (just outside High Wycombe) so not too far to travel to find them. They seem to be very territorial and you regularly hear them calling in the same spots. We had one feeding in the garden the other day, together with a Collared Dove and a Woodpigeon all at the same time!
Lovely video footage sounds of the birds " Trying to find Wild life Reedbed bird sounds !!!! But thank you I enjoyed it ..
Gorgeous all of them!!!! Such sweet sounds 💟💯🌻🌷♥️🦜thankyou X
Thank you!
With all the noise from electronic devices, cooling fans, and traffic, it's nice to listen to the sounds of nature 🙂 it's not easy to find many places in the westmidlands that are not polluted by sound! HS2 is being built straight through the countryside near where I live now! It's completely cut off a SSSI that was accessible via fields and hedgerows to countryside.
i heard that birds are starting to mimic the sounds of everything around them like phones notifications and car horns?
Simply wonderful!!
Birds are so cute, I enjoyed this. I love your enthusiasm in these videos!
Enjoyed that, I hear and see herring gulls over my house most days, I love to hear them. Thanks, great vid.
Thank you this was lovely to watch and listen to. The Blackbird has always been a favourite of mine and there were a few birds there I have never heard of or seen.
Great, I'm glad to show you some new birds. I have a few more videos like this lined up so stay tuned for those. Cheers
Aww lovely birds! Lovely to see too
Nice one Liam, really helpful to focus on bird calls and songs, and a double helping! Great stuff!
I love birds and I’m so glad Your feed showed in the yt feed. Thank u for introducing educational, valuable info about all types of birds. Their distinctive chirping are soothing to my ears!🤗🤗🤗😍😍😍😍😍
Great stuff Liam.
Thank you!
brilliant video; well put together. Thanks very much
A great video to watch and listen to 👍
exellent shorter than usuall but very interesting thanks for sharing
Thanks Keith. I uploaded 2 at the same time, so there may be another 4 minutes for you to watch if you're interested. The next video i release will be longer and full of facts like usual :)
Great video, thank you.
Thank you!
House Martins nest under the eaves, right above our bedroom window, so I'm *very* familiar with that call ! 😄
Haha, yes I bet you are. They're quite persistent!
🎵🎶👍thanks Liam.
Rob
Lovely! A great thing for reference also. Nice one Liam! 🌟👍

Thank you!
This video is awesome
I do enjoy your videos
Nice
another great list of birds, nice work Liam. (sorry about too many comments, i am just catching up with my viewing!)
Never too many comments Calvin! Glad you enjoyed the video :)
@@AShotOfWildlife thank you :)
Well done Liam!
Thank you!
0:46 it felt like my mind was transported to Cornwall for a few seconds
Brilliant :)
i have a Strang sounding bird that coms evry morning to my street i haven't herd it for 50 plus years. at first i though it was a corn crack but i don't think it is Like a big black bird with as a rolling sound to it call 3 distinct ruling hoots or pops
Birds are like the only dinosaurs that we still have.
They are the only dinosaurs we still have left.
@@AShotOfWildlife Indeed.
👏👏
Very interesting. I've seen most of these in the Netherlands
I suspect most of the videos on this channel will feature animals you get in the Netherlands. Especially given where I live is closer to Rotterdam than most of England.
@A Shot Of Wildlife I'm originally from South Africa and find the different species here fascinating.
@monty mac one day I hope to travel a bit around mainland europe in search of unique wildlife... but thats a pipe dream at the moment. Surely there's quite a lot of wildlife in South Africa?
@A Shot Of Wildlife A great variety indeed. So many different eco zones that support the various kinds. Who knows... maybe you will get your opportunity. Keep on keeping on!!😂
will Jackdaw do a single chirp, that is loud, and quite squeaky sounding? It sounds like something I have not noticed before, and I thought it could be a Bird of Prey, possibly. Been noticing it the last few days especially. We do have a lot of different Corvids in the area though, so it could be one of these. I recognise the regular Crow noises right away, this doesn't sound like that. It's only ever a single chirp though, maybe a couple with little intervals in between.
Great two video's. Is the house Sparrow different than the hedge Sparrow?🤔👍👍
Thank you.
So the hedge sparrow is actually a bird called the Dunnock - I made a video specifically about them 4 vids back.
Then we have house sparrows as shown in this video and there is also a rarer bird called a tree sparrow which I'll cover in the future at some point.
Cheers
@@AShotOfWildlife thanks for telling me. I watch your videos, some how missed that. Anyway thanks again.
@optic-craft 202 you're welcome. There is one from.wuite a while ago on house sparrows too if you haven't seen it. One day I'll do tree sparrows but I've only seen them in the flesh once thus far.
👏👍👌🥰
Thank you.
I keep hearing a bird where I walk but never see it. It makes a noise like a bass drop. Starts super high pitched and drops down to low before stopping. (One long continuous sound) Any ideas what it could be ? Its a pretty cool sound
Yes, I think I might be able to help (if my understanding of a bass drop is right). Search up the long call of a greenfinch. Let me know if that's the one, if not I'll keep trying lol.
@@AShotOfWildlife I think I found it. A starling. I found this video and the sound that it makes in the first few seconds is very close, albeit, if it was , they can actually extend this sound for 5 full seconds at least. Pretty cool stuff. ruclips.net/video/JieidzqoSg8/видео.html
Thanks for reply and have a nice week !
What kind of bird goes "hee hoo hee hoo hee hoo hee hoo" but really fast and in a high pitch. Usually starts at 4am.
👍
Thanks Jill.
So i thought I was jearing bats on my roof which were very exciting but as it turns out, its house martins 😂
I’m here because I hear a weird type of bird like bark or scream at night and dunno what it is
Probably a fox . They can bark like that at any time of year but mainly in January when they are mating . It can sometimes sound almost human .
Birth UK and India are divers, all these birds i see daily nearby
1:33 that is ruddy noisy
About the herring gull and the collard dove, isnt it more accurate to say "European herring gull" and "Eurasian collard dove"?
No, because the common names are herring gull and Eurasian collared dove. Unlike birds such as the European blackbird, where sometimes you may have to include the European part to prevent confusion for American audiences with the red winged blackbird, Eurasian collared doves don’t have any counterparts with similar names, the same goes for herring gulls, so putting the European and Eurasian part is unnecessary (you still can if you want, but you don’t have to worry about people getting confused)
@@theotheseaeagle but what about the American herring gull and the Burnese collared dove???
@@ickgtib the American herring gull is a subspecies of European herring gull
@@theotheseaeagle no it's not
@@ickgtib look at its species status, it’s a subspecies of herring gull
What a bizarre selection! And then it has a piano playing muzak in the background? You're having a laugh but why?
The list is completely random. I listed every bird I could get footage and the song of and then put it in a random generator. The background music is to keep the pace going.

I love wood pigeon they taste lovely easy to catch as well
All wild birds are protected under the Wildlife & Countryside Act 1981 so it is illegal to kill or harm them.
Rin, some people scroll through youtube trying to cause arguments and it isn't worth engaging them. There must be more than 50 comments on this video with people talking how pigeons taste.
@@AShotOfWildlife I thought they were just ignorant. But I think you're probably right, Liam. I feel sorry for someone who has to seek attention like that. Great video as always tough!
@@rinnie35 that’s a lie you can kill pigeons in the uk and eat them we hunt them all the time you only need a license
All sound great ,but not a lot of use to anyone in a town . I've never even seen a white tailed eagle, and as for ducks and sea birds yr don't get many in the centre of town. Not really practical as it says for the beginner.
It's a general guide to birds from across the country, but you will be glad to read that I am currently working in a series that features the common wildlife from each habitat. There will be an episode for towns and cities, so hopefully that'll suit you better. Cheers
I live in Dorset but sometimes visit my son in Islington . Trust me there is plenty of bird life in our cities , from my son’s balcony I can see crows jackdaws herring gulls robins blackbirds and starlings and magpies . even saw a pair of jays once . And if we go down to regents canal far more water birds than you see in the country .
This morning there was a starling at my feeder doing it's best to sound like a curlew & doing a bloody good job at it too.
