Can you please explain why the small birds that visit my garden feeding stations when it RAINS? I have noticed that they tend to come and feed when the rain begins. Yes they do feed at other times but it is noticeable they arrive with the wet weather! Is there a reason this happens? The birds are Goldfinches, Greenfinches, members of the Tit families, and Hedge Sparrows. I do live on the outskirts of a village with open fields overlooking our property. Please help me to understand this behaviour! Thankyou. Graham
Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
