The rain is now melting the snow, but my regulars were sitting on the hedge waiting for their breakfast this morning. |

...have to admit I don't feed the birds - with 3 cats, that's asking for trouble. |

Chopped apple and an out-of-date cake are on their menu this afternoon, in the back garden for the ground feeding birds. Plenty of fat balls are hanging in the container on the nearby tree. |

The strange things is that our birds eat most things on that list but I can't get them to eat rice. |

Had to clear 5 inches of snow off of the table this morning before I could restock it. All the time I was doing it a cock blackbird sat on the hedge 'swearing at me'. Obviously he thought I was being a bit slow lol |

I feed the birds at school with the left over sarnies etc they have tuna,ham, potted meat, cheese plus sausage rolls ,buns and I also feed wild bird seed and nuts. The Christmas hols have cost me a fortune as no sarnies. I have fed webox dog meat and bread liberaly spread with marg plus the seed and nuts. Originally it was for the birds that live and nest in the school grounds,it is an old school with all types of trees and shrubs (a pain in Autumn ). However, the word has got out, I blame the one black headed gull who happend to see me. The next day it was waiting on the roof and as I aproached it called she's here and about a dozen more came from nowhere. Now they are welcome to some but my poor crows who nest here don't get a look in, the smaller birds do because I feed them on an old horse chestnut tree stump which is surrounded by more trees. I am going to have to take out a mortgage in the Feb break if they keep spreading the news. (I may not be able to answer anyone as I am only allowed 1 go at the reply button). Elaine. |

I would love to put food out for the birds in my garden but I have a cat. He sits on the table looking through the window for them. |
