What the records say about Eversley
165 bird species have been recorded within 5 km of the centre of Eversley (Hampshire) since 2010, across 26,848 public observation records shared through GBIF. The most recorded are Robin, Woodpigeon and Blue Tit.
Water shapes this list. 43% of records near Eversley are ducks, geese, gulls, waders, herons and other waterbirds — Mallard, Canada Goose and Eurasian Coot lead them — which points to coast, estuary, river or open water within range. Robin is still the most logged garden bird.
10 birds of prey are on record nearby, including Red Kite, Common Buzzard and Common Kestrel.
Records peak in January and are lowest in October — about 3.7 times as many in the busiest month. Part of that is birds (migrants and winter visitors), part is people: more birders are out in good weather, so treat the curve as activity, not a census.
Yateley, 4 km to the east, has fewer species on record (160 against 165).
Daylight runs from 16 h 37 min at midsummer to 7 h 51 min at midwinter here. Sunrise is about 6:10 in mid-April and 4:46 in late June; the dawn chorus starts 30–60 minutes earlier.
