I have a Birch tree in the garden and there are always Goldfinches in it at some point during the day. They also like teasels when they are dried out and brown so I encourage a few of those to grow as well.

Magpies again I reckon. Note - don't fill feeders at this time of year; the little birds don't need it and the ruddy mags (and pigeons but don't mind them) come to where a) the wee birds are and then b) carry on on the feeders once they've wiped out the songbirds.

Lots of Goldfinches up my way, along with Greenfinches,they love Sunflower hearts. The starlings won't touch them, though. I used to put suet pellets out, but the Starlings would come down in a big flock, wolf the lot down and sh*t everywhere!
