But, for the first time this winter, blackbirds are now gobbling the

My blackbirds have changed behaviour - for the first time ever, they are
eating the yellow holly berries. And the pink/white pernettya berries.
But they're still ignoring the cotoneaster, which they always have
regarded as inedible, along with Skimmia.


In my garden the cotoneaster are always left until last. The rowan (Joseph
Rock) are always the first and are gone by early December.
