I traveled out to Dartmoor this morning, the weather was absolutely beautiful, bright and sunny without a cloud in the sky.  I went specifically to look for Ring Ouzel that had been seen recently but unfortunately, probably because it was a beautiful sunny Sunday and therefore a bit too busy, there was no sign whatsoever of the ouzels. In actual fact, the only birds I saw was a single Mistle Thrush and the nice little Wren (above). Did you know that the European Wren is one of Britain's most common birds?  This is because they are found in just about every habitat from our tallest Mountains and on the seashore as well as gardens, parks, and farmlands.
