Blackbirds

A few weeks ago when I started birding in the garden. I had a male and female Blackbird in the garden there's now about half a dozen using my garden.  Also yesterday there was one starling feeding in my garden today there was two both on the same fat ball feeder.

Today my garden population expand yet again I mentioned in a earlier blog that starlings had arrived in my garden today there was three of them feeding on fat balls and peanuts.  Also a woodpecker arrived in my tree he did not stay in the tree long or take any food but flew to a nearby garden tree I think a woodpecker is one of the more exotic birds to get in the garden.

Aso added suet and meal worm pellets and black sunflower seed and sunflower hearts to add variety to the food.

Just seen a Chaffinch female in the garden tree it did not come down to feed.

I have bought a feeding station to hang my bird feeders on there seems to be much more activity now as the birds use it for a perch while flying from one feeder to the next. Today a Starling was feeding on the fat balls two Jackdaws were in the tree but they did not come down to feed.
