We have hundreds of them here in SE London. I see them daily, sometimes just one, sometimes a flock, and hear them more often. Sometimes they're the only birds you can hear. I posted a thread about them some time ago. I'll see if I can find it and bump it up, it had some links on it I think.

My son had them when he lived in the Canary Wharf area and my Uncle ,who lives in Hampton also gets regular visits from them too.
I believe they have been seen in Sheffield.
When you don't even know who's in the team
S.Yorkshire/Derbyshire border
Not a glimmer here ... southern Scotland.
A single bee creates just one twelfth of a teaspoon of honey in her lifetime
they've not made it to where we used to live Hants/ surrey/ west Sussex borders
I live in Sussex, never seen or heard any, wherever we've visited.
I remember it always used to be said they would just die in the wild, Nature is much more clever than that.
Thanks guys
Logan, I've not seen any, nor heard anyone mention a sighting. Not far from you in Kingswinford by Stourbridge and Dudley.
