You may see moorhens nesting at around this time of year, so be sure to look out for them if you're near any bodies of water this week. This lithograph can be found inside John Gould's 'Birds of Great Britain', Vol. 4, 1873.

You'll often see just a flash of blue as these colourful birds fly past, but if you're very lucky you may see them perched and ready to dive for fish! These kingfishers are from John Gould's 'Birds of Great Britain', Vol. 2, 1873.
