Title: Wild Birds
Post by: hugh on February 07, 2022, 03:05:13 PM
This time last I had a steady stream of wild birds and I was for ever having to top up the containers. This year the odd blue tit and a robin and that's pretty much my bird spotting. Just hoping there are a lot more feeding stations and that is the reason :?: :?: :?: :?: :?:

My birds seem to be well down too Hugh but I've not been paying much attention I'm afraid..

I have a good view from my seat by my computer zoony and my bird numbers down by over 90%. Just hope because its been such a mild winter there is no need for the food.

the weather has been mild, so nature has been kind to them...

We have only "crows", magpies, woodpidgeons, starlings.

No small birds, but, lots of empty boxes.

Sparrow boxes, unused, last year.....
