Frantic activity here in our garden now from many different birds
We also have a new visiting Song Thrush as well who is being chased off

by
the male Blackbird
(greedy *^%£"*)

How's Yours?

Here our most exotic visitors are the ring necked parakeets which depend on
the generosity of the garden bird table suppliers of food to keep them
throughout the winter.
The sparrows are making a come back after their sharp decline of recent
years and anything I throw over the adjoining field for the crows attracts
the seagulls though they do not come into the garden but stay out in the
field.
When feeding, do not forget water which they need and which can be in short
supply when frozen.

We've had all the usual birds today - greenfinches, blackbirds,
siskins, sparrows, starlings, goldfinches, et all. But - this morning
an adult male yellowhammer was perched just by the bird table, within
6-8 feet of our window. We've never seen one before - a stunning bird!
We still can't quite believe it, but we do have a photo to remember it
by.
Happy New Year to everybody
