American Couple Reacts: FIRST TIME Seeing British Birds!! This is SO COOL!!

[@TheNatashaDebbieShow]

😂 Now that we have your attention, this is about BIRDS! The feathered type! So minds out of the gutter. We're just taking the piss! This is a video we have wanted to do for a long time as Natasha is a massive "Bird Nerd" "Birder" or as you would say, "Twitcher." We learn about the British Birds and Natasha teaches some about American Birds. This is definitely a fun, lighthearted and educational episode. Get your binoculars and out and and don't forget to Salute and say, "Good Morning Mr. Magpie, how's the Wife and Kids?" It's time to relax, smile and enjoy nature! 🐦

[@sandrahughes8645]

Natasha and Debbie, I absolutely loved that. I’m not quite a bird nerd but I do take my binoculars out when I take a walk.. have some bird books etc. Nothing quite so beautiful as the sound of birdsong early morning. Thankyou so much for this. I’m not well enough to go out and about at the moment so this really made my day. ❤️

[@s4ss1n]

I'm not sure if your aware but many older brits call the ladies "birds" though to be fair not so much these days. but it made me laugh when you passed the comment "this is about birds" making me think ummm so my mind is still in the gutter......glad you have got into the wildlife of britain though which consists mostly of birds these days

Thank you girls, you made an interesting and fun video out of a topic that many would ignore. I too, have "called in" birds using sounds from my mobile phone. I was amazed to find that it even worked with woodpeckers, that "knock,knock,knock" is different to each species and they all seem to recognise their own. To "call in" a flock of green woodpeckers is nothing short of spectacular. Thank you. 👍

I grew up in the West Midlands, the dawn chorus was deafening. Then I loved the skylark, a joyful sound.

[@janicejohnson6372]

I have a pond in my garden and each morning the birds queue on the stepping stones of the waterfall to have a bath. Each waiting patiently to take their turn. Near me there is a meadow and during the pandemic when we were on lock down the sound of bird song in the meadow was deafening, no human noise to drown them out. It was glorious, loved your video.

[@t.a.k.palfrey3882]

There's a large rookery just a hundred metres from our western verandah, and at dusk the calls totally overwhelm any other bird calls or songs on that side of the house. Gradually, as darkness deepens, their calls wane, and the only sounds remaining on that side are of robin-chats and barn and wood owls, and the occasional Mackinder owl.

[@johngardiner6800]

Sadly, she missed out one of my favourite little birds, the wagtail . The starling is of the myna bird family and, like it, can mimic the human voice. I once had a Robin that would fly into my hand to eat from me. My late father had a Robin and a thrush that would sit every morning on the fence by his back door waiting for him to open it and they would both fly into the kitchen and let him feed them, when satisfied they would fly out and reappear the following day.

[@keithorbell8946]

Teddy Roosevelt was amazed that the Blackbird’s song wasn’t a Nationally acknowledged treasure. He heard it on a visit to Britain, and loved the song of this species of thrush.

OK, found it at last. just one correction, I sent you the book this year, not last, Natasha. I'm going to look for an email address for you so l can send some of the photos l have taken this year, mostly on my feeders, but some on the ground too, Great video again ladies, thank you.

[@anneharley5319]

Hello ladies. I’m 70 years old and until a few years ago I had a real phobia of birds so had no interest but then a switch went in my head and all my phobias disappeared. We moved from inland to the coast and now we are surrounded with birds and animals. This was interesting to me too.

[@Ruizinho191]

Fun fact Natasha: Your robin (Turdus migratorius) is more closely related to our black bird (Turdus merula) and song thrush (Turdus philomelos) than to our robin (Erithacus rubecula)! Greetings from a fellow birder :)

[@SuperPixiefun]

Robins are wonderful. They won Britain’s favourite bird, as voted by the public. They’re very curious and quite brave - often coming quite close to you and watching whatever you’re doing in the garden. I had a nesting mother in my outdoor electrical box this year. She was so industrious - it was a blessing to see her throughout her preparing for and raising her brood. She got pretty comfortable with me. I hadn’t seen her for a while and had worried as we have avian flu and many birds of prey locally. So, I was delighted when she came to visit me only last week and even came inside and sat on my sofa for a few minutes.

[@stephenhitchen8753]

Nothing better than sitting outside and listening to the dawn chorus , so relaxing.

FYI "Chaff" is a waste produce from wheat and barley harvest - in the olden days with less mechanical processing and more horse transport more food was available for the birds to feed on in farmyards.

I have a Robin that appears every autumn. I watch it sit on my gate looking around my garden for food. It appeared a few weeks ago. My favourite birds that visit is my pair of collared doves. They sit on the roof of my summerhouse looking in my living room window to get my attention. If someone comes to my door and the dove sees me it flies down to let me know its here. It waits for me to go in and out to the back garden so I can feed it. I talk to them and I'm almost at the point where it will eat out of the cup of seed. The blue tits and sparrows have started to come and help keep the numbers of aphids down. I've got a relatively new garden and it's taken a few years to attract them in to it. I love watching them. They all love the small bird bath too. My favourite birdsong is that of the blackbird. I love to listen to it and wait to hear the response from another blackbird. Its so relaxing.

Great video as always ladies. I'm lucky as I live in the countryside near some woods which are less than 100 yards from my door. I get Sparrows, Starlings, Blackbirds, Chaffinches, Blue Tits, Magpies, Robins, Kingfishers, and my personal favourites, the Common Woodpecker. They are mad as when they're on the ground they hop like Kangaroos. Additionally flying about the place we have Red Kites, Kestrels Geese, Ducks , Wood Pigeons, Swifts and at night, Owls. Thank you again for another of your usual fun, interesting and edumacational videos ☺❤👍

Since Natasha likes bird watching when you come over to the UK go to Sandy in Bedfordshire it is the Headquarters of the RSPB and for a small fee you can walk around the site, you can also pick up a map showing all their reserve's that you can visit.

[@graceygrumble]

A friend of mine went wild-camping in The Wye Valley, right on the border between England and Wales. He was so overwhelmed by the dawn chorus, he taped it - I know, showing my age. This has reminded me that I really ought to go there, some day soon. I understand people who are obsessed with birds. I'm not, but I get it. This was a fun and informative watch.

[@samkenyon4522]

When we moved into our current house in the Cotswolds (a rural area in South West England) we made friends with the robins and blackbirds in our garden - they soon started hopping into our kitchen in the morning if we were late bringing their breakfast out and brought their babies in to meet us a few times. Now we have a giant clumsy rescue dog they keep their distance a bit more but we still love to watch them pottering about

Did you know we have large flocks of ring necked parakeets in a certain area of London, Kensington Gardens is a good place. They like apple's. Check out why London has parakeets.

[@robertwatford7425]

Hi Ladies, I admit I'm not very interrested in birds - although I do always salute a lone magpie and say 'Good morning Colonel' :-) But I did enjoy your enthusiasm for the subject. You may like to know that so many parrots (Ring-Necked Parakeets) have escaped or been released that there are breeding colonies in the South of England, particularly in parks around West London. The RSPB have said that this parrot is now a British Bird!

[@keithcornish5073]

I enjoyed that ladies, well done. A thing that people do here (though not as much as they used to) is cross British Finches with canaries. I had two Goldfinch X Canary a few years ago and they were lovely song birds. I love to go out to the local countryside where I live, or simply sit in my garden watching/listening to the birds.Ive had wood pigeon, collard dove, starling, sparrow, robin, great tit, blue tit, dunnock and blackbird nest and raise chicks in my garden which I felt very honoured to experience. Am I right in thinking that a chickadee is what we call call a tit One thing along the lines of how sparrows and starlings numbers have gone mental in the states. Ive got an old bird book that my dad bought me when I was young. In the back theres a section on "rarities" and one of the rare birds listed was Collard Dove. Now they are one of our most common birds, where I live we started getting Little Egrets on the marsh land outside town. Bird watchers (twitchers) were coming to the marsh from far a field to get a look at them. Now its getting hard not to see one and they're slowly spreading up the country and now we've started regularly getting spoonbills coming in. thats the way nature works.....and its great

The Magpie’s rhyme we used to say in my area West Cheshire for the number of magpie’s seen at once. It’s silly but I always remember it from my childhood I’m now 31. “1 for sorrow, 2 for joy, 3 for a girl, 4 for a boy, 5 for silver, 6 for gold, 7 for a secret never to be told.”

[@andrewhCC]

Very nice video and reaction. Mainly garden birds were featured. For songs and sounds, here in the UK, I have got to also mention the skylark, a songbird of open heath and moorland, and the curlew, a wader that winters by the coast but nests in open hill country with a wonderful song and calls - my favourite bird sound. Nightingales are uncommon summer visitors to the south of Britain, but one of Europe's favourite songbirds.

Thanks for a very entertaining video. I imagine you must be members of the Audubon Society. Often I use a CD of birdsong from Australian Forests as a sleeping aid. One of my Queenland grandsons said they'd used it during an overnight school field trip. Surely, a great way to get kids to appreciate nature. My gramps told me of some very onomatapoeic bird names in Welsh, eg sgrech y coed for Blue Jay, titw tomos las for Blue Tit, nicw for Goldfinch. One of my favourite bird songs is that of the curlew. When I lived in VA, I was oft awoken by the song of the whipporwill (spelling ??). BTW, in the UK one North American bird which has become a pest is the Canada Goose.

I live in a Manchester suburban area of with lots of trees and front and back gardens. There is a dawn chorus featuring a variety of bird songs starting in the Spring and throughout summer. I was aware of the decline in sparrows, but I didn't realise it was in such numbers. Twenty years ago sparrows were the most common bird we would see in the garden, now they a rare sight. The main ones now are blue tits, magpies, robins and wood pigeons. I have also noticed there are occasionally flocks of seagulls that fly in from the coast and circle overhead, which was something we never saw this far inland several years ago.

When they first fly the nest in spring, they're *tiny*, about the size of the average 12-yr-old's thumb. We have a little bird bath and the way they all fluff up to bathe is just... roly poly feathery goodness. Add to that the cherry blossom that fills the bird bath and they often get little pink blossom hats too...

Sounds like we have birdwatching in common. I had a Carolina wren family start on my porch in a plastic cup. It was so amazing. I filmed the stages of their growth. The entire family, including the chicks still live in our yard. Cardinals also have a family in our yard and we discovered the mom cardinal while trimming trees . We immediately stopped trimming and they were so friendly they brought their young son over and now visit us daily. They started eating bananas I left out on the porch to ripen. I was surprised that cardinals are a type of finch, they do have a lot of similar behaviors. We have some tiny wrens and blue grey knatcatchers too. They are so cute, they sometimes take sand baths and regular water baths, and the Carolina wren flew right up to the window and was talking with our Congo African Grey ❤Recently I found out that crows have the intelligence of a seven year old child. I used to rehabilitate animals at a wildlife rehab, we had many blue jays. They are so individual in their personalities and super smart. There is a lot of folklore about magpies in the UK culture. Some people get super terrified when they see one. We have collared doves too, I saw one recently without any others and was worried. It’s cool that we have some of the same birds as the UK. I love the BirdNET app I have identified many birds with it.

Back in the 70s, many people had a particular phone called a Trimaphone. The problem was that starlings would imitate the ringing tone. Where I live, in the winter the starlings arrive to spend the night under the pier. The murmuration as thousands gather and fly their synchronised display against a back drop of the setting sun, is amazing. 15 years ago when I fished the London canals, when the sparrows had their young, they would come right up to me to steal some of my bait.

I live on the south coast of the UK, we have a large population of Magpies but unsurprisingly our most common type of birds are gulls, feeding them is frowned upon as they are very aggressive and will mob people for their fish and chips, there's little point in having a bird table as all you will get is gulls but within 10 miles of us is the New Forest so we can walk through the forest and hear if not see lots of different birds.

[@markborder906]

Similar for me, but the other end of the south coast - Bexhill. I gave up with the bird table because of the gulls plus the squirrels. Love the New Forest btw, apart from the hold-ups getting through Lyndhurst, even though I love the town once through the traffic lights.

My Aunt also participates in a project that deals with seabirds found dead on the beaches in the area, where she'll bag them and hand them over to a researcher who dissects them looking for plastic in their stomachs, so as to report back on the damage being done. Every night where I am, there's usually a Crow vs Jackdaw stand/fly off, over a set of trees. It usually starts with a couple of Crows and Jackdaws calling at each other, then more and more arrive and it ends up being a whole inter-locking mass of birds, cawing and flying overhead for about an hour.

I loved this video, as it showed how beautiful our birds are in the UK. We have many migrating birds coming from all over Northern Europe and Iceland, because of our milder climate in the winter. Mind you are little winter birds are just as lovely Summer birds are just as lovely too and especially the Swifts, Swallows and House Martin's who fly all up from South Africa. When they arrive you know Summer is on its way in May. When they leave in September, you know Winter is coming. But, the sound of the Skylark is the sound of summer and especially the English Countryside. It is made famous from beautiful classical sound "The Lark Assending" by Vaughan Williams. Composed just before WW1. It is sound of England. So beautiful. Thank you for highlighting our lovely birds and especially our favourite the Robin who is our No1 on all of our Christmas cards. Christmas isn't Christmas without the Robin.

I would have to say most of the birds seemed to have disappeared during the heatwave in the summer. Only a few pigeons, less than before one lonely robin and a magpie. The dunnocks and finches have all gone. Even the silence is noticed when visiting the gardens at Clivenden. My bird feeders last weeks now, whereas in the spring try lasted a day.

I used to sit in the back garden with my father trying out bird calls...

This year 2024 we were lucky enough to have Robin's nest in the garden. It was lovely watching the parents feeding them and then we got to see the fledglings leave the nest too. ❤

I didn’t think that you two could amaze me with your reactions anymore… but you just have. I love this reaction, I’m an avid bird fan myself but I would never have guessed that you were. I hear a particular birdsong most mornings (in the UK) but I don’t know what it is, I hope I manage to find out.

[@lisajames3359]

Just to clarify when I said that I didn’t think that you two could amaze me with your reactions anymore, I meant any more outstandingly than your other reactions. My original comments could be misinterpreted, sounds like I’d written you off before this brilliant UK bird reaction. I absolutely love your channel, you really impress me with your diversity of content. 🥰

Another amazing video by you 2 lovely ladies. Natasha you were hilarious in today's video with all of your birds friends too. My favourite bird is the Robin. In my garden i see Robins, Blackbirds, Magpies, wood pidgeon.

I'm nearly sixty and, as a kid that loved bird watching, it was a rare treat in my part of Yorkshire to hear or especially see a "Jenny" Wren. Today, in the same fields and hedgerows I roamed as a budding twitcher, I see wrens almost daily. There was an abundance of Skylarks as a kid and it was fun to watch the mother birds try to lure me away from their nest sites. I suppose, due to over harvesting things like hay meadows, I haven't seen a skylark for several years. Such a shame as they were the soundtrack to my carefree childhood.

Thank you for appreciating our birds. My favorite song bird is the goldcrest its a tiny tiny bird😊 look it up its so cute❤

[@Devonshirejackdaw]

I think it's Britain's smallest bird

[@emmahowells8334]

My fave bird are the Robin & blue tit, beautiful birds & love their singing. We get mostly sparrow & house sparrow. Loved this video guys. I have a bird bath, a little house for them & a bird table for feed too.👌❤️🐦

We have a birdhouse in our garden (London uk) and successfully blue tots have been using it for 4 years. Watching them come and go throughout the summer is lovely. The Robin is a funny little bird, always first up and last to bed. He always has a lot to say. House sparrows have been fewer in numbers recently but this year we had lots so great to see them back. Great video thank you x

[@martinpotter9132]

yes i believe you, it used to be the same in the UK, but the sparrow suffered a some type of illness and all of a sudden they disappeared , when i fly back to the UK to see my parents before they passed within half an hour you would see more than 25 different species that visited the garden as my mother fed them a lot so me and my brothers keep it up, that is one thing i miss about the UK LOL

[@Granny_Cat_Lady]

This video is great, my parents feed the bird in our garden, we have a family of Blackbirds, I love listening to them chirruping & waiting for their morning breakfast, compliments of my parents. I love wood pigeons, their call is so relaxing & often reminds me of one of my favourite holiday destinations. Magpies are another regular visitor to our garden. This video is beautiful, thank you for posting it ❤.

I had a Magpie walk into my house through the patio doors jumped up on the coffee table and looked at me as if to say no bread today then turned round jumped back down and strolled out into the garden again .
