Thanks for setting up a site for garden birds Steve. It would be interesting to know when posting if members gardens are rural, urban, large small and whether they cater for birds i.e. management for birds and wildlife in general.
Does feeding take place and water, are there nestboxes and plants for birds.
Such a lot to find out, we could have threads metres long.
My garden is not too big, I have not measured it but I use a push petrol mower rather than a sit on. I am quite close to fields and am perhaps regarded by those living close by as a neighbour from hell as I have a very tall Leyllandi hedge. But it is great I have roosting thrushes and Starlings in the winter and breeding Thrushes, Dunnock, Greenfinch, Collared Dove and Goldcrest in the spring. I feed throughout the year and have four spots where water is provided.
My best bird was a Yellow-browed Warbler which was not accepted by those above. But I have no doubts so it is on my list!
