| | | Exciting time of year
Just wanted to share my excitment that we are entering an exciting time of year for birds in my garden. My garden tends to only (no disresepct to them!) be visited by Sparrows during the Summer and early Autumn. This will be my second year in a house with a garden and I am SOOOOO excited about having other birds visiting again.

I share your enthusiasm. Have you identified what you have seen?

I agree it'll be nice to have something other than the Pigeons and Doves in the garden again! |

Not seen any of these over the summer, hence my excitment that I may see them again as their natural food sources reduce and they are enticed by my feeders!

I seem to have the opposite mind.... my birds have gone away.... mind you i have been doing extra shifts so its darker in the mornings, so my casual observations have been non existent.
