Our back garden is currently showing a tasteful arrangement of frosted discs

Eye catching, but the result of the regular emptying of the ice out of the
birds' water bowl and refilling from the water butt.

Given that the temperature is not going much above freezing for the next few
days this may become a major feature.

I've just added som High Energy Mixture to the feeders, but there doesn't
seeem to be much bird activity at the moment.

I squasheda fat ball on the ground for the blackbird yesterday as well
as scattering seeds. I have to throw them in the 'rockery' else the
pigeons find them too easy to get. (There's a lot of privet twigs and
pigeons don't like walking on them)
