Had a Bullfinch visit my garden this morning, what a beautiful picture it made with its bright colouring against the snow

Cock Pheasant was standing on the table this morning ... well at least I did not have to clear any leftovers from yesterday lol

Stocked it up with nuts & nearly the last seeds ... will try to get some more, but the local shop has sold out & oh has banned me from getting into my little Fiesta.

Cannot get to work as road is all steep hills ... they are only opening from 9.30 - 12 today ... hopefully road will be gritted today, but as only a B road I might be asking too much lol

...have to admit I don't feed the birds - with 3 cats, that's asking for trouble.
However, I don't prune my plants until spring, and have been watching a male blue tit and a male bullfinch feeding on my Leycesteria Formosa (Himalayan Honeysuckle/ Pheasant Berry/ Flowering Nutmeg/ Granny's Curls) for the past 3 weeks at about 3pm every day when I've been here.
It's a wee bit overgrown so all the berries are about 8 ft up- and it's too thin for the cats to climb!

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