This little fellow, along with 2 friends, came visiting as usual today but I had taken the Niger seed feeder down to wash. Better put it back soon as they were looking for it!!
Not the greatest photo for clarity but only one I could get before they flew away!

I keep saying i'm going to get another one as i've got plenty of feeders to swop round when i was them except a niger seed one.

It's pouring with rain at the moment so can't get out there!
Hoping to replace it with a decent metal feeder soon as this was just a cheapy plastic one. Does the job but very feeble.
Lovely birds to watch though.

Crikey, what is it with you women and you're nagging me!!!
Ali said she's seen 4 on it the other day but not sure if they siskin as she doesn't know names and stuff! Guessing they are as the greenfinch are going to the seeds on the new station feeder.
Lovely to see them out there, whatever flavour they are:0))

Well, nagging might be a bit extreme but I did do it so I guess you're gentle motivation helped me in the right direction!!

I haven't indulged in a good 'nag' for years - it felt good :)

Did you get your Rowan after Gee? I was away for so long, I can't remember, although I have a vague memory of reading a blog on it????
Then again, I could have been dreaming!
