I know it is not a particularly sophisticated observation, but scientific species names that are just the same word twice always seem a bit silly to me. Leucogeranus leucogeranus, the Siberian Crane, is an example. It just means white crane – incidentally, the Chinese name baihe has the same meaning.

Have you ever wondered what birds think and say about birders? Here are ten representative statements I overheard in the field. 1. “Ah, the humans are back. Must be checklist season.” 2. “Honestly, I don’t mind the attention. It’s the misidentifications that hurt.” 3. “One of these days, I’ll follow them home and just stare at them for hours.” 4. “They call me a skulker.

One of the many pleasures of birdwatching is encountering the unexpected, as I was reminded last week when out surveying for Woodlarks. Walking across the first heath, where there was rumoured to be a pair of Woodlarks, I heard high-pitched quacking. I knew what it was without lifting my binoculars – a female Mandarin. It soon appeared overhead, closely followed by a drake.
