The bird table was brill this year.
We had blue tit, great tit, coal tit, green finches and siskin.
I find it hard to distinguish between the greenfinch and the siskin.
We also had sparrow and robin running around under the table.
We have a wild pond area where we feed mallard during the winter.
This year I noticed we had a really large flock of sparrows feeding with the mallard.
It was lovely to see them rise and to hear them chattering in the springtime. They seem to have disappeared now.
I am still a bit confused as to whether to feed on the bird-table throughout the year or to stop in late spring.
There seems to be conflicting advice.
