just love these birdies, wish I would afford mealworms, apparently they prefer them fresh?

This weather they arent choosy Lulu, we have got thru two boxes from Wilco's (£4 for two) and we have had blackbirds, starlings, sparrows, robins, the wagtail and blackcap after them..havent seen a wren yet tho..but he is around..

I had a look at wilko's may have to invest. I haven't seen our wren yet, my favourite bird.

How lovely Tetra, he looks a bit puzzled! Lulu ~ you can soak the mealworms in water to soften them up.

Glad he's still visiting, Tetrarch, mine has just reappeared after a few days absence.

Insects must be thin on the ground then Gee, we have quite a high proportion of ground/insect feeders in the garden at present..and the pied wagtail is generally not a garden bird. So reckon we are lucky. He is pretty tame too..not too worried about he camera..comes looking into the patio doors (reflection probly!) and an amusing character with his long legs! And when he flies, his white streaks on wings and tail are very flashy.

Haven't seen any of these in my garden, but we have plenty of them at work.
