Hi,

Very early this morning a robin appeared, followed by some sparrows, but
no sign of blackbird as yet!


Blackbirds adore Sultanas...May I suggest you try Morrisons on Festival
Park, where they are very reasonably priced?


I swear by Asda myself! 500g, 1lb sultanas, 41p. 1 kg porridge oats even
less.
Dunnocks love porridge oats.
I load my birdtable with sultanas, porridge oats, canary mix, budgie mix,
sunflower hearts and both black and striped sunflower seeds. It seems
very successful. The whole table is cleared every day. Full peanut
feeders last 3 or 4 days.

I love all that lot too. Do I really have to dress up as a Golden eagle to
get a mouthful?
