Birds in the garden and on my feeders, and photography of birds that visit the garden

Birds use my bird feeders a lot so I thought I may aswell make a thread on it most of mine tend to be Feeders rather than bird bath unless the Woodpigeon visits a lot or it’s spring and summer so I hope you enjoy any photos or things about the birds in the garden 

I usually get Blue Tit Great Tit Robin, Woodpigeon, Magpies, sometimes Starlings and occasionally 

A sneaky gull might stand on the wall and stare at my bowl or the occasional crow might show up 

Sometimes I get Goldfinches aswell. Last month I started putting bird food out on the bird table but different bird food in a pile Next to each other,  Niger seed, Suet Nuggets, and Mealworm Fat ball crumbs and mealworm suet pellets To see what they like without wasting food during that time I had blue tit visit my bird table, 

Great Tit, and Robin, and Blackbird, Goldfinch started visiting the tree more often than they have beenBut the Woodpigeon wasn’t as keen, the blackbird has become more of a Regular visitor since then and the Magpie has started visiting the bird table aswell. The blackbird has been visiting every day and more often than the other birds now And All the food had gone including niger seeds so I had to put some more suet out And the Blackbird has been doing his leaf turning and looking in my decoration I use for the insects to drink out of.

Foraging out the window while I was eating breakfast  

  • I heard a crackling sound outside and when I looked to see what the sound was it was 2 Woodpigeons were mateing and trying to get on each others backs in the garden
  • A Great Tit visited this morning I didn’t manage to get a photo but I managed to record it calling instead of a photo.  I got a photo of another Blue Tit weather its the same one or not is hard to tell though 

  • You can see how much it has eaten aswell. The Great Tit has started visiting again recently but The Blue Tit usually visits often. Sometimes it calls when it arives and sometimes it’s just there eating. It’s been clinging onto the back since the size of the fat ball has changed drastically compared to last time
