I have a ground feeder table within a cage that with some modifications keeps out the squirrels.
I watched a squirrel sliding down the feeder pole trying to get to the feeder with the perch that shuts off the hole under weight - seems to work so far - certainly with pigeons.
It was politely suggested that my bird feeding operation was encouraging pigeons so I've moved all this bird feeding stuff out to the front from the back which is a communal car parking area surrounded by big trees. This is where the pigeons hang out copiously craping on residents cars and it got so bad that people are now parking out in the street rather than their allocated parking spaces.

That ground looks wonderful - I'd much rather watch a test laying on grass than squashed up on concrete and plastic.

Bloody noisy en masse though.

So I've ordered one of these .

This bird feeder is supposed to shut down when a larger bird lands on the perch.
Works with pigeons but ...

Where in Greenwich are you.

Dothill Road allotments Shooters Hill.

Yes tbf the Council are probably happy to let us tick along and run things .
The enforcement of those 'rules&regs' is down to the council and rarely needs to happen.

This is Greenwich council ...

Sorry - you normally make perfect sense but I'm struggling here 😬

ha ha - sounds so familiar .

On one hand there is a massive waiting list for an allotment and on the other hand a number of neglected plots and the council never seem to be able to join the two up.
Neglected plot holders (regular offenders) get the 'letter' ✔️ - but there is rarely any follow up and they know it.

Are they fat baby?

Think these are called Barela

Oh gawd - sorry Tonts - Barelaas look closer 🤔

Our allotment officer is a bit officious and random. Some people get away with murder, others she brings the hammer down over nothing.

It’s annoying really- as far as I’m concerned if you’re using it and it’s well maintained you should be allowed anything within reason.

I've just been 'elected' on to our allotment committee (after resisting for 19 years 🙄) and when the latest council plot inspection was leaked we coincidently happened to be on our plots at 10am on the Sunday morning it happened. The allotment official appears to know more about what the site looks like on a spreadsheet than irl. There is a lot of generational legacy stuff going on where certain people are really getting away with things others are not - e.g. there is a chap* building a concrete/breeze block studio on his plot with he claims , "permission from the council".

*this is the chap who appeared in a tabloid headline "I was abducted by Aliens" and our secretary still has the newspaper stuck on the inside of his shed door.

Yes ! Thats them .
I chucked a few in a curry last night and they've gone unnoticed.
My neighbour grows them every year in the same place up and over a ramshackle pergola.

bless you thank you 😬

Yeah thats quite sheltered.

I've been given a carrier bag full of these by my Nepalese neighbour.
He did tell me what they are called but I didn't catch the name.
Does anyone know what they are ?

That thing has guy ropes - wouldn't last long on an allotment site - might be ok as a back garden play tent.
I'd like to see a real picture of it.

Hugs

You only get the one hug ?
