Great video Nick, a popular location...
Yes, I'm almost certain they are Chiffchaffs. I only started seeing them relatively recently.Charles B wrote: Thu Sep 11, 2025 10:49 am Another wonderful video Nick! Were thoses Chiffchaffs at the start of the video? I have them here too in Northern Germany and they like to play in my birdbath with fountain even more than the other birds do.
I had one Chiffchaff fly in with the swoops of Great Tits and Blue Tits one day and he stayed in my garden calling loudly (must be a male). He even came only an arm's length from me one day as I was sitting in my hanging basket chair drinking tea on the balcony. He is so quick any photos are impossible to take. Then his new wife showed up and he stopped calling. But they still like my bird bath and fountain and catch insects in and by my open air green house.Nick wrote: Sun Sep 14, 2025 8:00 amYes, I'm almost certain they are Chiffchaffs.

It is definitely a popular destination NickNick wrote: Sun Sep 28, 2025 8:16 am Despite the cooler weather now, I'm still getting lots of birds at the pond.
The blackbird isn't so keen on sharing 
They sure like all taking a dip also in cold weather!Nick wrote: Sun Sep 28, 2025 8:16 am Despite the cooler weather now, I'm still getting lots of birds at the pond.
