Morning,
Well what a change in the weather, I went out for a walk yesterday and it was a joy to get out with my camera, i was walking for an hour and it was good to be out,
I took this picture when we had the snow, Its a lovely dunock it a relative of the sparrow.
he/, She is standing on a soya block that the birds had no interest in till I put them on the garden and now all the birds feed from them, I know that lots cannot eat from things hanging so thought I would just put them on the garden and all birds like them now,

I'm a big bird watcher! We feed a lot of birds in our garden too, your robin pic is really lovely. I hadn't heard of soya blocks, good that the birds like it so much. Your card is lovely too :-D

Hi Lillian, love the nature photos! A busy loking desk. Sarah #12
ReplyDeletePretty cards Lillian, and I assume you are a bird fan. I love my garden birds and am interested in the soya blocks you mention. Where do you buy them (pet shop?) and do you just put them down on the ground and the birds eat them? They would be ideal for my blackbirds.

The soya blocks are interesting, will be looking out for those. Meanwhile, can’t enlarge your desk enough to be really really nosey, but if it involves table protective covering, I say it’s all good!

Yep Dunnock's are definitely ground feeders but as with the Robins both have mastered landing on my birdfeeders for the seeds there. Ended up cutting out 500+ more eggs for the Easter Event, so sorry for the late reply! Thanks for the visit BJ#10
