There's been lots of berries and fruit in the garden and I forgot all about putting out the bird feeders, until yesterday. The birds found it within an hour, mostly robins. Today, its the turn of the longtailed tits - one of my favourite birds. Welcome back chaps!

I aint no ornathologist but it's nice to see the robin red breast in the garden along with other small birds.

I know I would be very quick taking a bath outside in freezing cold water and this weather as well.

A great big bird visited our bird table this morning. It was a buzzard that sat on the roof of it and peered in to if there was anything for it - but it didn't see anything it fancied. It must be struggling to find any food this weather.
