Birds

The GSW has been around a bit more recently. I even saw him on the bird table and dropped to the floor to crawl to the window and peep over the sill.
He was also chasing other birds off the seeds on the slab. He's a very strange moving bird.


I am getting lots of sparrows down this corner of the garden. Definitely at least 3 male and I'm not sure if some of these are fledglings as well as females
The magpies have been after the fat recently
A bit of a stand-off going on
The jackdaws are so funny trying to pick the seeds up off the flat slabs. Their beaks are too big.
This goldie looks soooooooo fat.

Starlings and fat candles

The starlings have been eating machines recently and got through a whole fat candle in less than a day.
"Who moi?"


"moi?"


"Surely not moi?"


So I mad it a little more difficult for them. And ordered bigger ones hahaha.










I think this is a baby blackbird. It looks more like the penguin off "The Wrong Trousers"


The coal tits have been enjoying the fat too.




I'm not sure that this is a lady sparrow or a baby sparrow. Him and his mate seem not quite with it, which is why I thought they were juveniles


And the jackdaws are enjoying this fat cake

House Sparrows

Next door's sparrows have taken a liking to my feeder. As far as I can tell there are 3 male and 1 female.
Here is the beautiful lady sparrow
