Birdwatch!

Earlier this Winter I felt sorry for any birds around my house and having found myself with some waste lard to get rid of, I made up a fat candle: lard, seeds and breadcrumbs, moulded it and put it outside for the birds to eat.

Day 1 ... no birds
Day 2 ... no birds
Week 1 ... no birds
Week 2 ... no birds

For several weeks there were no birds in sight. Eventually the fat candle went and I started putting out my waste bread and that went quickly.

So, I am getting the birds used to my free food and now I want to set up a hide in my kitchen so that I can take photos of them.

I'll keep you fully informed!
