  • Hi Coal,

    do like hearing about people's regular visitors - and get jealous too, lol!

    Mine are:

    House Sparrows (large colony in conifers next to house)

    Starlings

    Woodpigeons

    Collared Doves

    Magpie (the monkey nut obsessive)

    Robin

    Blue Tits (the were irregular but now visit daily)

    Blackbirds

     

    And my newest regulars, which I'm pleased to announce are a pair of Goldfinches!  I didn't like to jinx them too soon, but they have been visiting daily for weeks!

    A female Sparrowhawk is a regular/irregular visitor.  By that I mean she doesn't come everyday like the others but appears often enough not be classed as an unusual visitor.
