Hi butterfly, I had three starlings use it a couple of days ago, but none since. They are using the covered feeders but not in great numbers. Will be turning colder mid week, so perhaps they will be a bit more hungry.

Thank you Jack , it sure does
By the way, I posted the second and third video more to show how many of them are huddled up together on the ground to roost, than for murmutation. That what looks like a black/dark soil on the other side of the water is not soil actually, its all starlings next to each other chattering

They are so funny, I could watch them all day long , very nice video Willpar
And wow, pied wagtail! They are the cutest birds , but I never get them in my garden unfortunately
See them sometimes in local car parks, and I always stop to look at them, super cute

I just saw, for the first time this year, quite a few of my starlings taking food away from the feeder . That can only mean one thing, they are feeding their babies . I better get ready for the great noise that will happen soon
