Putting On A Dangling Spread For Our Avian Friends.

 Feeding neighbourhood birds during an icy cold winter.

While others went crazy on clothes when our lock-down ended, we stocked up on these dangling buffets for our avian friends. First time we tried these and they are proving to be a hit.

A pair of Eurasian blue tits are eating to their heart's content it seems. There is such an air of excitement about and with each successive minute more and more tits appeared.

The tit on the left could pass as an avian don guarding the buffet....

Quite a nice balancing act on the wire. Amazing to see them approach at lightening speed and with accuracy land perfectly atop this wire. Birds are clever and full of character.

Hanging on to supper! These Eurasian blue tits are so full of spunk and surprising individuality. Makes me wonder what they tweet about all day and whether they keep tab on us....

It wouldn't surprise me at all because within half an hour of hanging these buffet stations, at least twenty birds were hovering.

Okay, I think this one has had enough...look at the size of him!

Anyway, it makes us both so happy to see the fun these birds are having and also knowing that at least some birds won't go hungry tonight or anytime soon.
