Been bedlam out on our feeders today. The colder the weather the more visitors it seems. Here is where I'm at today:
Blue tits,
Great tits,
Coal tits,
House Sparrows
Dunnock
Robin
Female Greater Spotted Woodpecker
Parakeets
Female Blackcap
Blackbird
Starlings
Collard doves plus regular pigeons
Miscellaneous corvids and gulls on fly-bys
Most pleased with the blackcap and strangely the house sparrows. We moved here early summer 24 and sparrows are something I've missed - but today is first day they've been here en-masse. Such a lovely racket they make. I've seen the blackcap around - but only worked out what it was today. Very smart grey thing with a russet brown cap. Only missing visitors are some semi regular long tailed tits and goldfinch which must be bothering someone else's feeder today.
The woodpecker should be star of the show, but they are a daily visitor and both the male and female hang around for ages on the feeder when they get started.
