Do you reckon there was anything wrong with the tree, peregrine? Could you see what sort was it? :tree:

A very lonely Greenfinch. By its markings I'd say a first winter juvenile but very welcome as I'd not seen a Greenfinch for a couple of months.

Today I am happy man. I moved my feeding station to a more central position in the garden as we get cats sitting on the fence. Since I moved it yesterday I have had some great fits feeding. Still getting magpies trying it and pinching my suet.

Magpies have been thieving for millennia. If there's an opportunity they will take it. :)

Logical that the birds will feel safer feeding further away from the threat of cats. No doubt some pix will be forthcoming ....... :) :photo: :yes:
