Sad about the whippet but what irresponsible owners if they knew that fireworks were around and they let the dog of the leash. Did they know?

I think I wrote the other day that K had built a roosting box and a robin has commandeered it. I told hi, he should make another couple of boxes and see which birds are attracted.

I had a robin that used to sit on my kitchen door handle and I used to talk to him through the door. He would fluff all up! :-D

He was there 2 years, but not this year! :-(

One of my Rugby Club Teams- the Ospreys are being hammered by the Ireland Club Munster at the moment.

Mind, it's very much a B team, and all youngsters, cos the big boys are away in the Wales Camp for tomorrow's game :-)

Joy, so far we have loads of sparrows, a pair of Great Tits, a robin, loads of starlings, a couple of Jackdaws. In the Spring a pair of Blackbirds nest in the hedge at the bottom of the garden.

We also have a visiting Classic Wood Pigeon who loves the elderberries on my tree.

Yes Fly. I've told him to clear out the mess (he just chucks everything in it) and he'll be able to get a telly and an easy chair in there for times when I want him out of my way. :-0

He might turn up Jem :-D

I think he would have turned up by now Fly, but you never know.

Apparently, robins seldom live past 18 months. If they do manage to survive past that they can live for up to 5 years

I think K was hoping the bluetits would use the roosting box because they'd used the nesting box he'd made.

JoyLouise Report 4 Nov 2016 20:13

He has loads of wood, Fly. It's handy when he's bored. :-D

Blue tits are lovely :-)
I thought there were 2 when I fist built my "feeding station" last week, but now I'm almost sure it was the Great Tits

He made the bird table with a lowered roof so that only the small birds could feed cos the collared doves and pigeons were grabbing everything on the table.
