Help please guys,my lady saw an unusual bird today in the garden,I can't place it from her description,so thought you good folks might be able to help.
Size between spadger and blackbird
Colour :chocolate brown upper shaz desribes the lower half as being almost like the bird had been dipped in blue black ink. white rump. Cream/ yellow wing bars greyish head not cap sort of mottled grey through brown. yellow or white...ish tip to the tail that had a notch sort of an inverted V at the tip
beak insectivore made a noise a bit like a LO chatter,the noise was very distinct and drew her attention as she thought it was a LO ..little owl
Shes not bad on bird ID guys,gets names mixed up a bit but I can normally work out what she has seen. this time I am utterly stumped. i'm no expert myself but have a fair knowledge She's convinced it is something she has never seen before,any thoughts or leads chaps I can then play google until a result comes
Cheers for any thoughts i'd love to know what it is,we have a cracking list I suppose for a garden,although I don't actually keep any form of list it would be nice to add something
many thanks
