Dead Birds In The Wrong Place:
We have a dead Kingfisher (Alcedo atthis) in the garden. I have never seen one in the vicinity in all the years we have lived here. Three days ago, it appeared at the back of the house, dead as the proverbial. Such a sad sight. Its wings were folded, it looked as though it had just been sitting watching for a fish. Really out of place. This was odd enough, but in the same place yesterday we had a Swallow (Hirundo rustica) appear- also in a resting pose, as opposed to in flight mode.
Any suggestions as to how and why ?
