I'll ask him to sign a cheque. That should get rid of him.Stewart Donald round yours?
Great tit, robin, black bird and starlings. Too early for the chafinch to take over the nest box yet, but they'll be back. I think the starlings are keeping the others away though as they're turning up on mass and hammering the fat balls.
I had bother with a crow. I was hanging fat balls in the plastic mesh bag but it was pecking through the mesh and taking the whole fat ball away! I bought a plastic fat ball holder to hang on the bird feeder but it kept flying down and lifting that off, tipping it out and stealing the whole fat balls. I bought a heavier metal holder thinking it wouldn't be able to lift that off but it did! I've now tied the holder onto the feeder with garden twine. The crow can't lift it off now and I've not seen it for a while, so I think it's gone off in the huff

Three squirrel proof feeders (seeds/nuts/suet balls) arrived on Friday but they’ve no solid base to limit bits falling too the ground and attracting the rat from the disused railway line who was popping in regular two winters ago. Nivver saw him last winter when we only used solid based feeders. So today I’m bolting three plastic camping plates from ebay onto the feeder cage bottom to hopefully prevent stuff falling to ground.
Ive prevented the squirrels from getting at the feeder we’ve had up already by attaching it to an isolated branch with a long chain and a long thin plastic plant pot turned upside down above the feeder. This stops the squirrels climbing down the chain and getting to the feeder. The squirrels gather on the fence staring at it as if in conference about how they can get at it. It’s been two years now and they’ve still not figured out a way. The first winter I hung it on a series of electicians cable ties and it took them about two months to figure out chewing through a tie and letting it fall to the ground. I thought they’d have figured it out sooner. They’ll not get through the chain that way.
It’s Man v Squirrell around here and I’m making a late comeback.
Sucking the air in through their buck teethMade me chuckle picturing them in conference like builders pricing up a job.
