Will look forward to having a gander at that photo Chris, doubt if I will get any of those, are they big(ish) to be using the feeders?

Brilliant photo Chris. I have only ever seen one once and that was in brimington cem on a tree. Certainly looks to be coping with that feeder though, wonder if they will bring their young  :)

I had obviously been missed by my feathered friends whilst on holiday (just thinking about their bellies though!!  ;))
We finally got out to the feeders around 7.00pm last night, they certainly had been hungry little gits! Just a quater of seed left in one feeder and about the same in the Nyjer feeders.
The Robin came as soon as we went out - at one point I thought it was going to sit on my shoulder  ???.
The black birds were the same, coming very close in anticipation of the meal worms I had.
They are now all fat and well fed/watered.  :)

I have a new type of bird feeding when I opened the curtains this morning.
Not sure as yet what it is.
Small (maybe a bit fatter than a sparrow). Very quick in movements. black and white. It's not a Pied Wagtail as I know they hop along. Am thinking it is a Coal Tit? Daughter says is it a young Magpie  :-? I hope not! But think it would be larger than that by now anyway. So am bird watching and will try and get a clear photo, not easy through the window.

Sorry I know these are not at all clear but the bird was black/grey with the white markings around it's head. Moved very fast as well. I didn't see it feeding from the hanging feeders. q?

Feeding the birds from our bird table in winter.


Next door neighbour attracting rats.
