I have a feeder pole and tray by the side of a dense bush in my back garden which attracts all your usual garden birds - collared doves, robins(2!), sparrow, dunnocks, tits etc - however I have recently been getting visits from 8 or so sparrows who fly into the hedge, sit and eat at hourly intervals.....
Anyway to cut to the chase for the last two days they have been joined by a solitary goldfinch who will fly in with them, eat with them and fly off with them. Having never seen a goldfinch I was really pleased and the colours were so vivid ..... but I'm interested to know if this is normal behaviour?
