It's the same here - a family of 3 dunnocks and Best Mate robin; oh yes, and a few ferals banghead.
Thing is, it happens every single year and I'm always surprised by it :rolleyes2:

      There's no point squandering any savings as there is next year's feeding frenzy to finance. :)

      Becoming more convinced that they are returning to their haunts in my garden.
      For mumfs now I've been feeding only 3 times a day (on the ground) but all this week it has been 4. (I make it a rule that all grub is gone by 6 pm-ish.).
      Today I added a small extra feed at 5 pm due to overwhelming demand - robin, couple of sparrows, 3 blackies. :), 2 collies.

      If you can bash coconut shells into wee enough pieces they make a good mulch.

      Errrmmm: soap dishes, bowls, bras, bird houses .......
