Woke up to see a heron standing by my gate yesterday. Big old buggers they are.

Doh. I clicked this because I thought it would be about which ones are the best eating...and cooking suggestions.

Lots of robins knocking about and their non-red breasted juveniles. I always thought they were our Winter birds.

Only time I ever saw two robins together they were fighting ferociously.
They are viciously territorial.

Every bird known to man are still eating me out of house and home,the down side is i have a really big window that the young uns fly into so i have to keep that curtain closed,still get a few,most kick the bucket but the odd one will just get a headache and i have to keep it indoors till they recover,i love my garden,i know i am really lucky

You could try the transparent bird silhouette stickers. The birds can see something on the window then. I've got stickers in the shape of a leaf and they work really well. Got them online at 'Living With Birds'. Amazon might have them as well.

On our feeder we have one of those mesh things that you pop a slice of bread in for the little birds to stick their beaks through and grab a little bit.About an hour ago a crow turned up and spent a couple of minutes inspecting the mesh feeder,it then opened the lid and flew off with the whole slice! Clever bird.

A couple of years back I saw a pair of magpies dive-bombing a cat. They chased it off their turf, and no messing.

On another note: how do I upload an image with a jpg extension off my desktop to here? I've got a rather fine photo I took that I'd like to share.

 

[denislawsbackheel]

You need to put it on something like Flickr first

One of my bird boxes has been taken over by bees this year. I’ve never run so fast as when I accidentally nudged it this week...

I painted the front door steps yesterday and 10 minutes after finishing, they shat all over it. I've really gone off the buggers now.

Are you sure it's bees and not just really small birds?
