About These Birds
Common Nightingale
The common nightingale is celebrated as one of the finest songsters in the bird world, inspiring poets from Homer to Keats. Males sing complex phrases of over 250 different types, often at night during breeding season. Despite its famous song, the nightingale is a plain-looking bird that skulks in dense vegetation.
Black Redstart
The Black Redstart is a compact, robin-sized bird; males are sooty-black with a distinctive rust-red tail that is constantly shivered, while females are gray-brown with the same rusty tail. It breeds across Europe and Central Asia from the British Isles east to the Himalayas, inhabiting rocky hillsides, cliffs, urban buildings, and railway yards, wintering in southern Europe and Africa. It feeds on insects, berries, and small invertebrates.
