Lovely photos and well captured with the blue tit so cute.

Its because your so gererous Tony thats why your plate is clean, but not for long I notice and what a lovely day enjoying watching them all feast.

Och! Ma wee hearty!! You're back! you and the gang have been sorely missed, well, I've missed you anyway!
Aren't the wee birds hungry at the minute?! We were at a BBQ at Keith's sisters today, and they were giving off something terrible to each other...noo! the birds! not Keith and his sis! They were fighting over the fat balls you get for them, there were dozens of them, everything from sparrows, ringneck doves, finches, although I thought they only ate seeds and nuts, to lumpin' big magpies and starlings!! The fat balls are hung under a big laburnum that has been kept at about 10ft, but with all the leaping about and squeaking and shrieking, it just looked like the whole bush had come alive! It kept us entertained all afternoon! You're very generous with your wildlife, Tony, it's not surprising you have so many visitors! I hope you enjoyed your 'goosegab' pie, I'm sure your good wife was looking after your health, and didn't allow you any cream!
Internet to the house isn't fixed yet!! So I'll have to get off the work computer, I do miss Goy though, and I'm glad to see you back! Take care! Have fun!

Great blog and pics,it made me laugh this morning,always a good start to the day.:o)..your wife is very good at with a witty reply..love it,and must remember that one .Lol.
Our birds are going berserk for food too..just fed up of weeding all the gunge out,underneath the feeders..I do more here than all the rest of the garden..bless em ! :o)

You are a real bird lover Tony. At least 27 sparrows! As I mentioned a few times on this side, I have not seen a single sparrow in my garden for 10 years. Many robins, black birds, wood pigeons, Magpies, many other species but not one sparrow. I really do not know. I heard about sparrow disease but I am not sure what the true reason is.

Hi sixpence So many birds its amazing how they all just plonk themselves on the lawn. At this rate my plate may be empty for ages. Hope all is ok now, glad your back . Take care enjoy. Tony

A hoy there me hearty tis Elizabeth me thinks. So its a BBQ is it ! all those delicious ribs and charred sausages . Blooming luxury you been having and i get lettuce ,tomato and hard boiled egg,s. Love my salads really Elizabeth but my good lady has a gold weight membership at weight watchers so she looks after my points and indeed my diet. Goy members were going to put a missing members notice out on you Elizabeth. Lucky for you Elizabeth they got the picture wrong ,surely you havent got a eye patch , shoulder parrot , and a wonky wooden crutch (LoL). Nice to hear your ok and hope situation is rectified in near future. Take care enjoy Tony

Hi bloomer Glad you liked the blog. Yes my good lady rules but i am the master in my shed. Sorrey thats not quite right now as i cannot find some of my tools after Valerie tidied up(LoL). Don,t know where the bird,s are all coming from . Its absolutely amazing , they just take over. They fill all the water bath,s (i have 3 ) and swarm like bee,s over the feeders. Was,nt like that last year, i wonder if its anything to do with the warming we hear about. Hope all goes well in your garden. Take care enjoy. Tony

Hi coshad We have quite a lot of sparrows ,Robins and Starlings every day but i must admit its become very overwhelming with all three lately. I have 9 Bird boxes in position and they were all occupied earlier this year. Now its birds young and old all over the place. They actually weight for the feeders and water fountains to be filled then they are on them very fast. My good lady photographs them from the kitchen. Hope all goes well in your garden,take care. Tony Ps We have a yearley visit from a wood pigeon we named Scooby.

Thank you Tony, yes its suprising how many birds will flock to get food, I m sure your wife will not let you go with out :o))
