    We have some birds that stay with us all the year round namely :-
    The Wren, the Robin, the Black-bird, the Thrush, and the Sparrow. Other birds fly to the warmer countries. When the Winter comes the Cuckoo, the Swallow fly away to foreign countries. The swallows build their nests in the eaves of houses and some of them build in chimneys.
