Some garden you got there, Oyster catcher and curlew are not your common garden birds.

Nope but they fly over all the time.

From the kitchen window this morning.
Dunnocks
Sparrows
Great Tits
Blue Tits
Long tail Tits.
Greater spotted woodpecker.
Greenfinches
Bullfinches
Nuthatch
Crow.
Collared Dove.
Buzzard (not strictly in the garden, some way above it)

No idea what an oyster catcher looks like, but I'm pretty confident there's never been any in my back garden!

Saw a couple of Swallows last weekend, so summer's definitely here now 🙂

These [Oyster catchers] fly back and forwards all day, I live between and old quarry, where they nest, and a reservoir on the edge of the moors, where they feed.

Awww, I feed them when I'm fishing...not a popular (or sensible) thing to do though.
