We now have 4 siskins joining the redpolls and goldfinches on the niger seed feeder. A male, female and 2 juveniles have appeared and have been regular visitors over the last 4 days. Maybe they have come over from the conifers at Sunderland Pasture as I don't think the 3 christmas trees in our garden have hosted this family.
The house martins are feeding chicks in the nest on the north-east gable end of the house and the volume of droppings under the nest is growing daily. I wonder if we'll manage two broods this year as the weather has been so good.
Young greenfinches are now visiting the sunflower seed feeder and 2 coal tits have re-appeared after several weeks absence to pinch seeds and fly off with them.
