That’s a lot and of course not all of them are equally interesting. But make no mistake, a visit to a small watering hole or a small urban park can offer great and surprising experiences with birds. In Tivoli Gardens in Copenhagen, for example, the Black-headed Gull, Short-toed Treecreeper and Turtle Dove have been spotted.
