Regularly feed the local birds. When I put out a seed feeder, it is
normally all gone within 24 hours. I put out one on Wednesday morning,
and now 4 days later it is still half full!

There seem to be a couple of sparrows, and the odd tit around, but
nothing like last week. Do you thinlk they've gone off their food
because of the heat?

(It is not that they been attracted by someone elses feeder, as there
are only a few houses here, and only a couple of those feed the birds)



Same here - although they appeared yesterday afternoon for a feast.

I assume some of the zillions of spiders are keeping them busy.
