    Was wondering what these are.

    It was recored in a small wood in Co. Kilkenny

    Recorded in a garden in Kilkenny.
    Wild uneducated guess: juvenile starling or a juvenile blackbird?

    Thanks

    Not sure on the exact type for the first one but a Corvid of some type, and the second is definitely a young Blackbird.

    Thanks. I don't know why I guessed at a blackbird. Lucky guess.
    It was hidden in a bush, but boy was it making itself heard.

    Yeah there was more than one in the wood. Very noisy, but right up on top of the trees. I couldn't get any kind of view of them.

    Cheers.
