Read a report House Sparrow numbers have increased by 10% in recent years.
Certainly reflected in our garden; around 15 regulary visit our feeders, they're nesting so there's more on the way.
Its costing a fortune in bird feed. They're partial to fat feeders and no-mess mixed bird food. Not keen on sunflower hearts but will eat them if there's nothing else.
Two regular Tree Sparrow aren't daunted by their presence. They often boss around the House Sparrow and shove them off the feeders.
We've now got a visiting pair of Long-tailed Tit, a pair of Woodpigeon, a pair of Collared Dove, some Dunnock, Blackbird, Coal Tit, Blue Tit and Great Tit and a male pheasant.
A Sparrowhawk sometimes passes by.
