The house sparrow is a familiar, streaky brown bird of towns, parks and gardens. Males sport a grey cap and black bib, the size of which indicates their status.

The bearded tit is an unmistakable cinnamon-coloured bird of reedbeds in the south, east and north-west of England. Males actually sport a black 'moustache', rather than a beard!

This huge gull can be seen around most of the UK's coasts in summer, with some venturing inland in winter.

This funny-looking fish certainly won't be winning any beauty pageants, but it's a real contender for Father of the Year!
