They're beautiful little birds: their plumage may be 'merely' brown and grey, but if looked at more closely, it reveals a wealth of subtle shadings and intriguing details. Along with robins, they are a winter pal: buoyant, cheery, busily going about their business. 👌

I have them in my garden all year round and at the seed feeder. So pretty.

Dunnocks are definitely a favourite of mine, you can make friends with them, where i used to live they used to come to my window for grated cheese & in the summer the pair would bring the whole family to visit. Little peepers 😍❤😍

This is good timing. With RSPB garden bird watch next weekend, it’s good to have a clear definition between dunnocks and sparrows, so I don’t count them wrongly. Thanks Liam

Great video Liam. The Dunnock is an often overlooked bird. The old country name is “flutter wing” due to their display of flapping their wings. I didn’t know they had been introduced to New Zealand, but when I was there I remember the native Grey Warblers as being very similar in size, appearance and habit.

One of my absolute favourite birds! One day i saw one singing on the fence and couldn't believe the song coming out of such a tiny bird!

Comprehensive and beautifully presented as ever. The dunnock's a great little bird! Nice one Liam. 🌟👍

We used to have loads of house sparrows in outer London up to the 70's. They gradually disappeared. I never imagined not seeing them, as they were so very common.

See them now again on country walks but not in the garden. Lovely little birds, thanks for video, always full of interesting information.

I love dunnocks, they are so pretty, and they are such characters. I don’t think that their plumage is dull at all, it’s beautifully subtle with gorgeous shading of browns and greys. I’ve discovered that the dunnocks in my area have different songs and calls at different points in the year. During the mating season they have a pretty trill which is as complex as a wren’s song but scratchier, and at other times their call is a simple cheep. I’ve been watching a dunnock this week in the garden and it seems to tolerate some birds such as blackbirds, robins, goldcrests and long tailed tits and even wood pigeons close to its home feeding station, whom they clear up after. In contrast it keeps well away when the corvids and starlings are close by. They are very interesting little birds.

Thanks for super video. And all this time I’ve probably been mistaking Dunnocks for Sparrows

Great video mate. Alongside the blue tit the Dunnock is the most common bird in my garden but I didn’t know much about them until now. 👍👍👍

Dunnocks have a grey or dark grey chest, are smaller & are always on the ground or in low lying shrubbery. They have a distinctive way of hopping around & also have a very high pitched 'peeping' call they make, especially the warning PEEEEP they give for cats which is so loud i've seen them make cats run off by blasting it near to the cats sensitive ears - Very funny to watch 🙂

I didn't know about the different shaped beak. That will make them much easier to identify. Thanks Liam

I love Dunnocks, I have 2 that live in my garden that always come to watch me when I’m refilling the bird feeders. I call them my winged mice because of the way they scurry about in the undergrowth.

Hi Liam brilliant video I have several of them visiting my garden and about 30 houses sparrows I do put a variety of food out for the wild birds keep up the good work and videos Bernard

Great video. I hadn't seen a Dunnock in over 30 years until I moved to semi rural Hertfordshire last year. Now I have a number of them that visit my balcony daily hoovering up the spills from the hanging bird feeders, and theres plenty to forage for after the messy blue and great tits and sparrows have had their fill.
I think the wee Dunnocks are fast becoming my favourite visitors.

Nice one Liam. The Dunnock is a somewhat under-rated bird in my opinion. I love their cheerful song, which I feature (along with the Robin's and Wren's) in my "How To ID Garden Bird Songs: Robin, Wren, & Dunnock" video here: https://youtu.be/CcbDL9hinNo . Keep up the good content mate. 👍🙂👍

I love sparrows and dark eyed juncos, both of which keep me company during the winter months in Oklahoma

Nice beanie Liam and what lovely little birds they are and their eggs are so pretty lovely colour 😊

Camouflage apparently. Darker eggs have better UV protection too allegedly. birds that leave their eggs alone for long hours have dark eggs, light eggs are laid by those whose stay close by.

Please do a video on whether any of this is true!! Anne.

Thanks Angela, it was a birthday present :) yes, there are a few birds that have eggs of a similar colour but I don't know what the advantage is. I'll look it up.

Hi Liam I've seen more Dunnocks while I've been out photographing barn owls than ever before, and can be seen in my new Barn Owl video coming out soon. I will put a link to this video, keep up the good work. 😎

I have 2 that come into my garden in NE Scotland. Rarely see them together and usually eating seeds off the ground. Occasionally they will sit on my fence and sing

These birds are plentiful in my garden, though, as you say, there were fewer years ago and more sparrows, which are rarely seen these days.

Crow_Friend

@Mad Isn’t It? I read that Sparrowhawks kill 2000 sparrows & other small birds or 500 blackbirds, thrushes or 250 young Crows, jays, magpies (obviously they would predate a combination of all 3) just in a single successful breeding season. The RSPB's obsessed with raptors & introduces and protects them everywhere but in the same breath traps & kills around 500 Crows per year to 'protect' other birds species. Ridiculous. Where i live there are no sparrows or thrushes left at all 😞

Great video as always. After watching this and you recent song thrush video I was wondering why so many birds lay blue eggs, what is the advantage?

Gary Moore

@A Shot Of Wildlife thank you.

A Shot Of Wildlife

Thanks Gary. I'll give you the short answer, it's to do with stopping them from overheating. I am going to do a video, possibly a very short video on this in the next week or so.

Ever had one of those conversations when someone says "Oh, I only have sparrows in my garden", when they mean dunnocks? As if being surrounded by these wonderful characters is some sort of ornithological consolation prize.

Anne0926

Also, isn’t a dunnock twice the size of a sparrow and darker in appearance overall? Sparrows have a distinctive light grey face and black beard, no?

I discovered by accident a nest in a small evergreen tree in the back end of my back garden where I've been tydying up and putting a new fence in.. Annoyingly I'd trimmed the tree before discovering it... There are three eggs. Luckily my trimming has not discouraged them. And one egg has hatched today. After watching this I will leave this tree alone now to re grow. And hopefully they will continue to breed there. I have also got some robins in the front area of my back garden building a nest somewhere in our Lean-to. So exciting.💝

Fascinating, will have to check out your channel to see if you have covered bumble bees. Hope so...

A Shot Of Wildlife

Thanks, Mandy. I'm glad you liked the video. I haven't done bumble bees yet, but it's a great suggestion that I will add to my list for the future. There are plenty of bird videos amd other wildlife already on the channel though so I hope you'll give them a look. Cheers.

No idea if I have these dunnock in my garden.i just think I have lots of sparrows( 60 or so).
A Robin or two
Lots of starlings, pidgeons, magpies, crows, and the occasional sparrow hawk and a couple of squirrels.
I fill the feeders 2 or 3 times daily It costs a fortune especially the meal worms but it's nice to watch the hedge so alive with birds.

Nothing like a sparrow they have a beak for eating insects and their nest is a very neat construction unlike the sparrow

Thanks Keith. I'm glad you liked the video, they're quite a common species so I don't know how I managed to emit them until now. Next up, the song thrush!

Can someone tell the truth about cats & dogs regarding wildlife. Let's do a Cat-Toilet (some still call it a garden) bird watch for how many are tortured to death by the aforementioned. Put bird feeders up then let your cat out... NOT compos mentis people. I'm a gardener and I see so many birds/small animals getting mauled. We have 13 acres of land and my Mum's skanky dog has got hold of several deer and mauled them. "I LIKE wildlife, but I enjoy torturing it all?"
