  2. Wild birds
    There are a lot of wild birds in this district. Some of them are errors, jackdaws, robins, wrens, yellow hammers, sea gulls and magpies. These birds stay here always but there are others which only stay in the summer such as cuckoo, swallows and corncrakes.
    Each bird builds its own nest except the cuckoos which lays its eggs in some other birds nest. Each bird builds her nest with stuff the same colour as the place where she builds it .
