HOODED CROW-BIRKENHEAD PARK

A Hooded Crow was reported near Birkenhead North Station on 15th August. After a quick dash up the M53, I initially missed it, as the bird had flown. Later in the afternoon, I returned to Birkenhead, where the crow had been relocated to the cricket pitch.

On arrival, it didn’t take long to connect, with the bird sitting quietly under the cricket porch before flying onto the field, where it showed exceptionally well.

The bird then flew onto the field and showed really well.
