The Hunger Games

We have probably the largest garden to date ( apart from Tyddyn where we pretty much had access to the whole valley) and my bird feeder is proving popular. So far we have had Blue Tits, Great Tits, Long Tailed Tits, Chaffinches, Willow Warblers, Finches, Great Spotted Woodpecker, Robins, Blackbirds, Song Thrush, Coal Tit and Wood Pidgeons.

We also have an abundant squirrel population. It’s a good job we have the squirrel dome up though. When we first arrived I placed a coconut feeder in the tree for the birds. Within a day the squirrels had stolen it and Mr Fogg came back from work to see a squirrel trying to drag said coconut across the garden.

So far we have thick squirrels. One has just spent ten minutes running up and down the bird feeder and bashing its head each time on the dome. Now he’s opted to hijack the birds, just clobbered one on the head to pinch the seeds….I’ll make a drink and watch the show me thinks.
