Please don’t forget

During the predicted cold weather to put out some water and food for the birds, they are about to start breeding and should be in really good condition! I have my feeders topped up regularly and today had 10 goldfinches on the Niger seed along with chaffinch’s redpolls. Siskins and the usual array of **bleep** on the peanuts, a beautiful pair of partridge eating on the ground along with a lovely **bleep** pheasant, a flock of sparrows, dunnock, Robins, blackbirds, a tree creeper, a couple of wrens, and a host of other birds. So do what you can to help a native wildlife and start a list of visitors. And remember even if you live in a flat you can get a feeder which fits on your window, I get a regular visit around our upstairs window from a goldcrest which is Britain’s smallest bird and it goes behind the soffit boards hunting for spiders and flies 👍
