What the records say about Bearley
103 bird species have been recorded within 5 km of the centre of Bearley (Warwickshire) since 2010, across 6,913 public observation records shared through GBIF. The most recorded are Woodpigeon, Carrion Crow and Robin.
Bearley is a garden-bird place: 79% of the records here are small songbirds, doves, woodpeckers and the other birds that come to feeders and garden trees. Woodpigeon, Carrion Crow, Robin and Jackdaw make up the core of what you can expect at a feeder.
11 birds of prey are on record nearby, including Common Buzzard, Common Kestrel and Red Kite.
Records peak in February and are lowest in June — about 4.6 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.
Wilmcote, 3 km to the south-west, has a similar number of species on record (100 against 103).
Daylight runs from 16 h 47 min at midsummer to 7 h 42 min at midwinter here. Sunrise is about 6:11 in mid-April and 4:44 in late June; the dawn chorus starts 30–60 minutes earlier.
