I’m running a bit late this week so bear with me. This week’s quiz is population themed. Can you estimate these UK bird populations?
- The black grouse has undergone prolonged declines in the UK. How many males are left?
2. The chaffinch is a common garden bird, but can you estimate how many breeding pairs there are?
3. The golden pheasant is a very rare introduced UK bird. But how many pairs actually breed?
4. A shy but widespread bird, the grey wagtail is striking. But how many pairs breed in the UK?
5. A crow of Scotland and Ireland, the hooded crow is a very hard bird to find in England and Wales. How many pairs breed though?
The Bovey Birder 
1. 250
2. 2.5 million
3. 50
4. 2000
5. 260 thousand
