House Sparrows | Great Tits feeding

The Great Tit loves to feed on the fatball. Fats and oils are what the birds are looking for in this cold weather. It is essential that these small birds replace the body fat that has been converted into energy and kept them warm overnight.






The Sparrows and the Great Tit are having a good time on the seed feeder and the fat ball.








The Woodpigeon wants to get in on the action too:

Blue, Great and Coal Tit influx

Following a few months which saw very few species appearing regularly in my garden, more birds are now beginning to show. Between 08:00 and 08:30 this morning, I have been watching Blue Tits, Great Tits and Coal Tits in an intense feeding attack on the cage feeder. It was great to watch this breakfast activity.

Babies in the Garden

Following my last post about the Crows, I did begin to wonder if their prescence did actually have some sinister consequences, namely the lack of young birds. Very few babies of the feathered variety had been seen in my garden.
There was the flurry of young House Sparrows, but no sign of fledgling Starlings, Blackbirds or Robins which we would normally have seen by now. But fear not, things have

My garden Birds | The Return

Here we are, half way through September ( the time seems to fly much faster than any bird, where has this year gone) and My Garden Birds are starting The Return as I knew they would.From late July and throughout August we have very little bird activity in the garden apart from the regular Woodpigeons and Doves. The Blackbirds and Robins are absent for a much longer period than this, seeming to
