Yes :) We do it every year and look forward to it. I've just put up a Fat Block feeder, a Peanut Globe and a Niger feeder in addition to my other feeders, to get them all here for next weekend :clap: !

You can monitor them over several different 'hours' and just send them the best result - it's not cheating! just don't add them all up !!!!!!!!
