- The birds which are common in my district are:- blackbird, thrush, robin, swallow, yellow hammer, cuckoo, magpie, crow, lark, pigeon, hawk, grouse, sea-gull, green linet, grey linet, bats, owl, water-hen, corn-crake and the wren.
The robin builds its nest in a low bush or ditch, so does the wren. The corncrake builds its nest in the corn or hayfields. The pigeon builds its nest in the tree-tops, the sea-gull in the sea-cliffs, the lark flat on the ground, the hawk hatches its young up on the high mountain cliffs, the grouse in the heather etc.
