Now that the field has been ploughed the Linnets are more inclined to use the tables rather than the ground feeding– has anyone got any niger seed or sunflower hearts going spare they could donate? Linnets eating both at the moment. Reply here or email me via [email protected] if so. Thanks!

LDBWS feeding station: now the field has been ploughed the Linnets are mainly using the tables– and woe betide any Chaffinch, Brambling or Reed Bunting that dares to sample their seed. pic.twitter.com/96lLm7wbzZ

Linnet 5
Reed bunting 3
Chaffinch 2
Stock dove 1
Mallard 2
Pheasant 1
Carrion crow 1
Blue tit 1
Robin 3 (still apparently content to share the space)
Dunnock 1

An immaculate pair of bullfinches visited my garden in Scotforth briefly yesterday – first time I’ve clocked them this Winter / Spring. At least 2 blackcaps were “giving it laldy” in Piccadilly yesterday morning.
