What the records say about Pebworth

104 bird species have been recorded within 5 km of the centre of Pebworth (Worcestershire) since 2010, across 2,663 public observation records shared through GBIF. The most recorded are Woodpigeon, Jackdaw and Magpie.

Pebworth is a garden-bird place: 81% of the records here are small songbirds, doves, woodpeckers and the other birds that come to feeders and garden trees. Woodpigeon, Jackdaw, Magpie and Blackbird make up the core of what you can expect at a feeder.

9 birds of prey are on record nearby, including Common Buzzard, Common Kestrel and Red Kite. A hawk that hunts feeder birds is among them, so set feeders 2–3 metres from shrubs: close enough for cover, far enough that a cat can't ambush from it.

Records peak in June and are lowest in October — about 3.0 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.

Honeybourne, 3 km to the south-west, has fewer species on record (94 against 104). Birds logged far more often around Pebworth than there include Gray Heron.

Daylight runs from 16 h 46 min at midsummer to 7 h 43 min at midwinter here. Sunrise is about 6:12 in mid-April and 4:45 in late June; the dawn chorus starts 30–60 minutes earlier.
