FEEDING STATION

Set up my feeding station with a couple more perches hoping that the birds will kindly line up to have their picture taken.


my bird feeding station
I've been lucky enough so far to have had 35 different species visit my feeders, I also should imagine I've missed the odd rare visitor. 
Although birds will come into a feeding station all year round I find that the busiest times are early spring when the birds a trying to get into peak condition ready for breeding and on freezing days in winter when food is scarce.
Here's some of the more commoner birds that frequent my feeders.


goldfinch

wren

nuthatch

dunnock

female chaffinch

great tit
male chaffinch



It's set up now so lets see what the autumn and winter brings in, something rare or unusual I hope (fingers crossed).
