Good of them to form an orderly queue.

 

Latest here is a goldcrest hopping up and down the side of the house (board cladded) collecting cobwebs and yesterday while I was literally having a blast on Beachy Head my wife and son found where some Great Tits are nesting; watch to the end

Gary . get down the pet shop and buy a bag of dried meal worms .  If you can get in close to take a pic you can give them a feed . I have done it . They just open up when you put your hand in .

Here’s the ducks that we reared,used to shake a bag of mealworms outside and within a couple of minutes they would come in and land by the backdoor.Did this every night for couple months and then they would stay until next morning

Something I've never seen before, a sparrow landed on the house gutter, paused then went into a gap under a roof tile. Second later it was pushed back out by another sparrow which stood on the gutter holding it by the leg. Had quite a struggle dangling upside down trying to get free when eventually the one holding it shook like a dog with a toy in its mouth and released, throwing it away. It took to the wing and disappeared sharpish. Don't mess with the sparrow!

Back in the 70s and 80s such occurrences were blamed on pesticides and herbicides; wonder what the real reason is! (= random probabilty)
