I wondered why there was no bird on the feeders today, then I saw why, a sparrowhawk eating its lunch in my back garden. :sad: They're very...
I can give you tips on the horses if you like, equine psychology is my schtick. If not, ignore me. :biggrin:
My main water butt collects from the roof below the starlings' nest - I made a filter by drilling small holes in the end of a food tin, it fits...
Thank you, yes you're right - well done for sussing that from the dark photo!
I'm easily pleased, so I was doubly excited to see not one, but two greenfinches today on the feeders - for the first time ever! :hapydancsmil:
A friend came in and stayed for an hour or so on Sunday, he was a big, mainly very dark brown bee, and I'm not sure what he was.[ATTACH]
I agree, just do what you can with as little disturbance as possible - it may be their first time as parents. Robins are very territorial and...

Love that @ViewAhead ! It looks good up the tap too. Grow more cuttings, see if you can get a vine in a couple of years! :biggrin: Seriously...
I'm sat indoors and I'm quite cold. Looks like it'll be less windy and brighter here tomorrow, but still only a maximum of 12⁰. It's just not on...
Does anyone just put slices of tomato in the soil? I watched a video about it last night. Seems like a practical way to go about it.
I'm late with tomatoes, again, so I've put the seeds on wet paper. I wanted to thin out the other fargesias but the bin is full from doing the...
The greenfinch is back again! :smile: I hope he'll be a regular visitor now.
@simone_in_wiltshire I do that too, summer in my little garden is blissful when there's no cars going past. Birdsong and the hum of pollinators is...
