Chiff Chaff in Kent!

[Raindancer411]

I just had a shock and saw my first ever chiff chaff in my garden. I didnt know what it was until I looked on the internet. I thought I had heard the song but just thought it was the great tit as that seems to sound similar to me... Never knew we had them in Kent, or at least in the towns!

Brilliant! I've heard them around us - but never seen one.....

They're usually a woodland bird aren't they? They are usually too high up in the trees to spot- lucky you.

I guess its as we got so many trees in the garden lol... it was actually down on my patio hanging in my potted wisteria...

We heard them in N Yorks last weekend. I had a friend who used to call them 'Chip Shops' - Does sound like that doesn't it?
