I did though have one tray that I have kept going..I clean it every day and only put out a small amount which is attarcting mostly Bluts & great tits and dunnock. Last week though I had 3 male bullies in and today 2 female and one male...these finches have looked fine so I am thinking about going back with the feeders...it will take time to get the birds back in but will keep an eye open when they return....not seen any goldies in a couple of weeks now.Have done some wildlife and bird photogrpahy from the comfort of my home in the last 24 hours though...lolSat here yesterday I noticed a lesser blacked gull on the neighbours roof and took a snap through the window and later on I had a couple of mountain visitors on my front garden !! :-O</blockquote>
