Well the flock of fieldfares came back with a vengeance today! They meant business - they were after the apples put out for the residents, and they fought and displayed amongst themselves in the same way that blackbirds do, chasing around, or flying up at each other in a fury of feathers. One difference was that when confronting one another, they would raise their tail feathers and then spread them out in a sort of "come over here if you think you're hard enough!" way!
Yes, same has happened here in wiltshire. The blackbirds seemed mighty releived all the fuss is over, but not seen the Thrush back yet! probably got fed up of being dive bombed. Must say the food seems to have lasted longer for the last couple of days, but have noticed they are eating alot of black sunflower seeds.
Have also noticed the Blue Tits taking notice again in the nest boxes - wont be long spring will be here Yay....
