The dawn chorus round here always sounds the same, but this year I've noticed a different little twittering, so I've been on the web to see if I can identify it. I found this great web site from the BBC where you can listen to all our different bird songs. (I can't get a clickable link to show up, but this is the address if you want to copy and paste http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/science/birdsong.shtml )
Well I think the only one that sounds remotely like it is the Bullfinch. Not a bird I would associate with east London!
Pretty isn't he!?

He is pretty. Have you ever seen him. I sometimes (if it's a decent day) sit in our back garden and it's lovely listening to the birds. Like you, I've not a clue what they belong to.
I love to listen to the birds too Sandie. I miss the birds at our cottage in Brenchley, especially the song thrush. Not a lot of different birds here, mostly just sparrows and blackbirds. They do have a pretty song though. xxoo
I have a birdie bath and it's a joy to watch them splashing about. That one is lovely!
