It varies - but right now I'm fond of Little Owls - smart wee creatures. But overall - short eared owls - the male primary call is just awesome

Robins. And birds of prey in general.

I love the red kite we even had one land in our back garden
on second thoughts its Stevie Nicks and I would live her to land in my back garden.

I bet you wouldn't say that to her face, she'd whoop your posteriorial region, lol!

I agree on the Barn Owl, awesome creature, but it does tend to play chicken with the traffic!

"...The long tailed tits are fun to watch..."

My three year old daughter saw her first long tailed tit yesterday, they come down from the hills for a few days about this time each year. I wish I'd had my camera handy to catch the wonder on her face.

A favorite? For me probably the Redstart. We have a couple who nest on the roof opposite each spring.

I like pinkfoot geese, they are awesome to be under when they come in to roost in their hundreds of thousands!

As you might guess it's probably somewhere between the Peregrine and the Hobby ( we had wonderful views of Hobby hawking dragonflies and feeding on the wing near Shrewsbury last Bank Holiday) though I'm always in awe at the wonderful song of the Blackbird on a late Spring evening.....

Robins and blackbirds because they keep me company while I'm working (gardener).

If I had to come back as a bird it would have to be a Buzzard. They are just awesome birds. I could watch them for hours. It lifts my spirit just to see them.

For me it's the barn owl purely becuse it's so rare,impressive beautiful etc it's a bit like a unicorn around my ways. If u tell someone that u have seen one they laugh at you. At least you know you managed to remain quiet enough for one to come close enough to see.
