| Re: New from Cheshire Dear Carl, Nightshade and Henrya, thank you for the welcome and info.
Re birdseed: I discovered my local market charges 50p per 2 kg. So while the RSPB may be worthy, I think the greater food source will be more beneficial for the birds.
Re feeders: Nightshade suggested plastic and transparent. But wouldn’t mesh allow more birds to feed simultaneously against two (one per feeding hole at the bottom of the tube)?
If I’m correct, which type - plastic mesh or steel mesh tube?
As an aside, are there any birds who are wary of feeding off the ground and would prefer a bird table?
Thank you for any info.
