Mark thinks he's got problems with birds. I've got a cheeky blackbird that, despite the fly screen, comes indoors to check the egg boxes to make sure I haven't missed any moths!
Sorry, not very good shot. I do have short video.

Over the winter, I would pop into the greenhouse at the bottom of the garden first thing, I got into the habit of throwing suet pellets and meal worm out to the Robin and blackbirds - they became "trained to this routine and would often arrive as soon as the saw me coming down the path. Luckily this has paid off - I visit the greenhouse and put enough food down to distract them while I empty the trap which is on the patio - win win, only downside is it costs me a fortune in birdfood!
ReplyDeleteGood idea Robert.
ReplyDeletePreviously we had cats. But they need to be old otherwise it can be carnage.
