Our regulars seen in the garden are sparrows which nest in our house and garage. A pair of gold finches (put up Niger feeder a couple of years ago specifically to attract them, it took about 10-12 weeks before a sighting but they're regular now when the seed is about). A pair of Robins at the moment although when it's not breeding/nesting time we only see one. A pair of blue tits, and numerous great tits. We have plenty of dunnocks, some black birds, a few fat wood pigeons, a wren and a thrush are the most commonly seen and very occasionally a spotted woodpecker comes for some peanuts. There is also a sparrow hawk who we occasionally see having a spy at what's on the feeders. There was also likely something bigger around this weekend as I found a pile of wood pigeon feathers in a quiet corner of the garden.
