We had one flew in at my partner's mum's in France it was terrified, pooed everywhere. So we just left it, then when it was darker in the basement it could see the light and flew out via the airbricks.

I can see your snowdrops! But not everybody's.

I will have to also. Buy one. Saw lots of pied wagtails about, they never come in to the garden though. They seem to like the carparks, there are a lot of fast food outlets but even in the supermarket one. Have seen them in the street. We used to get grey and yellow ones in the garden, but not now.

Just had a 'stray' cat asking to come in. It was eating the bird food. Felt sorry for it a little tabby, a bit thin a bit wobbly. Young. It was afraid of my partner though and scuttled off. Maybe our door is like his door?

No Steve but I think I got it on my phone I will have to learn how to log in on the phone soI can converse with the forum. MAC tells me BHA is an unsecure connection attackers might be trying to steal my information. It does this to some sites now.

Yes I know the issue is with me. I will try and link my phone up to it.

No sorry. I can only see them if they appear already open on the screen. I see do you call them a blue and green thumbnail with the right hand corner missing. It is only this year I am been unable to see them. I can see my own and Pedrocut's Robin Link.

I I know the problem is my end. Maybe because the mac is old. SO it's not that i don't like your posts I just can't see them, only if they are open from the start.

Why does trying to open your attachments tell me the site is unsafe. ?Wish I could open them

This one is a different robin it is very nervous. There are 4 but they all look the same to me. Sometimes I think some are fatter they say the females are bigger.? If they have been fighting and get scuffs I can tell them apart.

I think they are saying, thats my food, keep off! Don't they lift the spirit though?

Ours are fussy too except when the temperature drops. I have tried four or five different seed mixes and there is always something the don't like in each one. Like niger seed, corn, or in this one a small beige oval seed. I also shred suet from a block or a fatball for the robins and the blackbirds.

The pots are cut down plastic water bottles, I do this to try and keep from spilling grain. And it's quicker and easier to top the feeders up.I saw a very cheap bird table in Wilko but it looks cheap with the tacks or nails or staples showing. But is has a bar across the bottom on two sides...

Robin sees me go in to the garage, I say garage loosely, and he slips in under the roof and sometimes sings on a ladder in the rafters then comes down to get first pick. I took a video but the file is too big. I am also unable to open most of your attachments now unless they appear already...

I have been helping my partner with some of her family history, for a change. (She usually helps me with mine.) One of her relatives going back a couple of generations, in France, was listed as a Devideuse. It took me a while on several historic French sites to define that it was a woman, who...

There is one is Coventry too they sell small rodents.

That looks a beautiful animal. Long legs. My Nan as a little girl so circa 1912 or before remembers a barge horse drop dead with a heart attack whilst towing the barge. She cried all the way home. Really upset her. Her dad told her they work till they dropped dead. I thought of this as I watched...

I only just found out but it doesn't matter when we remember people, as long as we remember them. God Bless. Nico.

One of my relatives was a blacksmith's striker not sure i fthat was industrial or for horses or maybe they did both then? Probably in the Black Country I would think. I have just seen a site on the web about work horses. The picture shows a dray horse with sacking tied around it's feet to stop...

I think we may not be related, I think KDorse is a third cousin to my third cousin, who'se mother married in to the Dorse family. So maybe not related to me. Or maybe as my Nan said, cat ran over the garden wall related. Thank you for helping with my original post Lyn
