Thank you Linda, the garden cranked up a notch, which was great to see.

The video for June has landed. Lots of coming and goings. The gull has been elevated to nuisance category, taking too much food. Bit of a commotion in the hanging feeder and an acrobatic feline.

Great video as per usual. That cat has to be viewed as a nuisance too. Once they get it into their head that there is sport to be had they keep returning. As for the gull it's just doing what gulls do and will not be easily discouraged unless you suspend feeding for a while.

Thank you JS for the cats the garden is a buffet. Lots of young sparrows at the moment. With the gull, not putting out food at regular times, and in places it cant get, that was the plan. It stayed away for several days and then turned up again.

A good number of species William, not counting the cat... A great rock climbing mouse It's funny, I have never seen a gull in the garden even though they are flying overhead. Probably prefer the fish & chips down the road... Nice to see the hedgehogs are still about.

Good stuff, William... I reckon the male Blackbird had as much as the gull! How did juvie Starling get in and out of the feeder? Very determined!! Nice to see the Dunnock and mouse again, and the rained upon Crow

Thank you Snappy, have had the gull for a couple of years now, not easy to deter them, but am doing my best. The cat lives behind me, i call it chunky. because it is just that. Don't go by looks. Get the occasional starling in the hanging feeder.

Thank you PB, short mouse clip, but was nice to see. Think I have two pairs of blackbirds coming in, and still collecting food.

July has been a scorcher, but the garden carries on.

Some interesting developments. There are now two gulls visiting and your moulting blackbirds are going some odd colours.
Thank you Willpar
PS That cat is becoming a nuisance.
