Today at about 1 a.m. I was astonished to hear what I thought was a
nightingale here in Normandy. Is this possible? Has anyone else heard a
nightingale this early in the year?

Take a look at this site with recordings of popular wild birds see if it
helps identify your feathered friend

Did have another site which helped me identify a buzzard seen around my
garden one summer afternoon last year. but cant find link just at moment


This one has identification and bird song:
