Why won't they eat the Fat Balls?
Along with the usual seed feeders, I have two fat balls (well half coconut shells full of fat and seeds) hanging from line. The feeders are really popular so site isn't the problem. Last year, the starlings and blue tits loved exactly the same fat balls. This year they haven't even been touched. I thought they might be a bit hard so I gouged them a bit but it's made no difference.
What's wrong - why aren't they being eaten?
