Which British garden bird actually deserves the title of nation's feathered favourite?
Forget the robin's smug Christmas card monopoly for a moment. We're settling this once and for all: rank the back garden regulars by who genuinely earns your loyalty at the bird feeder.
Put the items in your preferred order.
A
The Robin
Charming, bold and apparently incapable of staying out of a Boxing Day photo. But is the redbreast living off past glories and clever marketing?
B
The Blue Tit
Tiny, scrappy, and willing to hang upside down for a sunflower seed. The plucky underdog every Brit secretly roots for.
C
The Blackbird
That liquid morning song belongs to him. Less flashy than the rest, but arguably the finest vocalist on your lawn.
D
The Goldfinch
Red face, gold wing flash, and a posh tinkling call. Basically the bird equivalent of someone who summers in Cornwall.
E
The Wood Pigeon
Forever scoffing the seed meant for everyone else and crashing through hedges like a drunk uncle at a wedding. Loathed, yet weirdly beloved.
