| | | Shivering Birds
I've seen a few birds shivering today, never seen that before.
Six days of poor diet is certainly showing on the smaller Birds, but the bigger type Birds seem to be coping OK. |

I've seen some very miserable looking ones, fingers crossed I've not noticed any shivering yet, will keep my eyes open now though. I've been feeding my garden birds vast amounts of suet/fat based treat since this weather started, hope this is doing the trick

I've been putting extra hen food out, it's very high in protein and the wild birds love it, the hens don't mind sharing which is very good of them.

In the climate at the moment going through about a 12 kg bag seed a week keeping them going plus fatballs and seed cakes I dont mind the Feral pigeons coming in to the garden as long as they dont take it all from the smaller birds
