What the records say about Bubbenhall

191 bird species have been recorded within 5 km of the centre of Bubbenhall (Warwickshire) since 2010, across 77,134 public observation records shared through GBIF. The most recorded are Lesser Black-backed Gull, Mallard and Robin.

Water shapes this list. 49% of records near Bubbenhall are ducks, geese, gulls, waders, herons and other waterbirds — Lesser Black-backed Gull, Mallard and Mute Swan lead them — which points to coast, estuary, river or open water within range. Robin is still the most logged garden bird.

14 birds of prey are on record nearby, including Common Buzzard and Common Kestrel.

Records peak in April and are lowest in November — about 2.4 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.

Ryton on Dunsmore, 3 km to the north-east, has a similar number of species on record (191 against 191).

Daylight runs from 16 h 48 min at midsummer to 7 h 41 min at midwinter here. Sunrise is about 6:10 in mid-April and 4:43 in late June; the dawn chorus starts 30–60 minutes earlier.
