Garden Visitors..

This weekend sees the Big Garden Birdwatch.. organised by the RSPB. (but i probably dont need to tell you that).
My visitors are pretty much the standard list for most gardens, but there are a few characters.. Like Maggy, the Jackdaw who thinks he's a Magpie? And 2 Robins that are fighting for feeding rights - it seems to be a draw so far.

A pair of Collared Doves are present most days, as well as a Coal Tit, Great Tits, Blue Tits and often over a dozen House Sparrows..

My birdfood stocks go down very quickly when the Jackdaws arrive on mass.. plus 3 regularly visiting Woodpigeon.. Still waiting for a little cracker like a GS Woody, (they fly over often enough) or a Nurthatch.. Im currnently up to a dozen different species since the Bird Feeder was put up at the start of the year. I suppose some Nyger seeds might attract a few Goldfinch etc.. I'll look into it..






Maggy the Jackdaw.


I should really give these two names..
Mr and Mrs Collared seems too formal.
