Just googled - aren't they beautiful? I can't say I have seen any in France, or maybe I just didn't realise what it was :-) I get quite a lot of tits where I am (OK stop laughing in the back, there!). as well as the usual magpies, robins, sparrows etc. As we are near the sea and marshy areas we are often treated to cranes and herons too, which I adore. I am a bit of a bird lover, when we go on hols, my favourite activity is to spot the hawks and falcons on the fence posts and in the trees.
