    The birds that I know in this district are namely:- The Robin, Cuckoo, Swallow, Black bird, Lark, Thrush, House Sparrow, Corncrake, and the Wren.
    The Cuckoo and Swallow and Corncrake go away in the beginning of Autumn. The cuckoos colour is grey. She has a grey beak and tail.
    The swallow's colour is blue and white. The swallow's tail is like a fork. The robin has a red breast and a sort of brown on his tail.
