I seem to get rooks, jackdors, magpies etc in my garden.... I do still
get a few small birds but how can I encourage them when the big birds
are eating all the nuts and seeds before the little ones get a look in.

You need some high bushes or hedges. The big birds don't like to drop into a
garden where they cannot escape in a hurry. We have lots and lots of little
ones, but the neighbour has the big ones as their garden is 'open'

Will give you an idea

I get the small birds, Blackbirds the biggest, under the Veranda and almost
at my feet when the door is open
