| | Where have all my blackbirds and blue tits gone? I went on holiday, came back, filled up the bird feeder (big one with lots of feeders) filled up the ground feeders and ........... nothing! After two days the sparrows and starlings came back (no surprise there), then the pigeons and that's all. The blue tits and blackbirds are owhere to b seen.
Can anyone advise me on how to tempt them back please?
