A quick post at how surprised I always am at what mum gets in her garden in Birmingham. It's birds I suspect most people get in their garden, but a) they're super cool for a Londoner with just a balcony b) I lived there for 11 years and never noticed! She has 2 resident Goldcrest, many fat Woodpigeon, a small army of Coal Tit, a few Great Tit and Blue Tit, a lovely Thrush, couple of Dunnock, couple of Bullfinch and the best of all - a Nuthatch! That was just on the day I happened to be visiting and have a few minutes to watch the garden, there could be plenty more. I think more are visiting since she got a new bird feeder - review to follow soon.
I'm also sticking in a photo of a Grey Wagtail I saw from my inner London, bird barren balcony - 3rd in 3 years!

| YES! Grey Wagtail, welcome to Bermondsey. |
Do you prefer small birds then? There are some impressive ostriches in my neck of the woods.
ReplyDeleteCan you get them to perch on a feeder?
