    The common birds in my district are the crow, pigeon, hawk, black-bird, thrush, lark, robin, sparrow, mag-pie, swallow, cuckoo, starling, willie-wag-tail, wren hedge-sparrow, gold-finch, bull-finch, and yellow-hammer.
    The swallow comes in April and migrates in October.
    The cuckoo comes in April and leaves in July.
    The starlings come in October.
    The pheasant and partridges are seen in October.
    The birds that come in Winter are the wild duck and the wild geese.
