At The Feeders

Had a couple of hours at the new screen today:
Lots of Blue Tits - A flock of 20-30 were wandering around & hitting the feeders now & then.
10+ Chaffinch, 10+ Goldfinch, 4-5 Coal Tits, up to 10 or so Great Tits, a Robin & a Dunnock, & 6-7 L.T.Tits keep coming back to the fat balls. There's a pair of Bullfinch regularly, especially the male & more importantly I gave up counting the Siskin today at 20+, 12-15 were regularly on the deck next to the table. You can see the Niger feeders empty whilst your there for an hour or so. A G.S.Woodpecker & a couple of Magpie's were lurking but not brave enough to come with people around yet.

Some of the Siskin around today:

Difficult conditions for Photos but really nice views for watching!
