Hi John I can understand why you think question 3 is quite disturbing but I would never dream of doing anything to even disturb them and would have a big problem with someone if they did  . I just wondered where they would nest so I could keep an eye out near there to photograph them. I am glad that there are people like you who are concerned it shows many people still care about the protection of wildlife  |

1. What is the best food to put out to attract nuthatches? as I live near mature woodland and get GSW and goldcrests and all sorts but have seen no nuthatches.
cheers VC.  | We have regular nuthatch visits, and the preferred food is my home made suet block - but the hanging feeders for hearts and black sunflower seed are used too. (The pic was caught by one of our webcams).  |

Help guys.
After a week of gales and torrential rain I feel I,m fighting a losing battle.
No sooner do I put food out than the wind carries it away. Its pointless putting food on the feeding trays and the wind empties the hanging feeders quicker than you can say 'come and get it,' Does anyone have any ideas please? |

Oh, fantastic, Vinny. I'm so very pleased for you! It's number one on my list of birds I want to see in my garden.

Let's hope his around for the Big Garden Birdwatch weekend after next! |
