The little Red House bird feeder in the cemetery has stayed in place since its last return; and the birds seem to appreciate it. The ones using it that I've managed to identify so far are Great Tit (very common around here), Bullfinch and (I think) Greenfinch. *
Not much use trying to capture any of them with my phone; but yesterday when I had my other camera, I managed to zoom some in from a "respectful distance".

cute little birds visiting a cute little house.. love it
ReplyDeleteSandra, so do I! :)
DeleteInvaluable for the little birds and a cute feeder too.
ReplyDeleteThey do seem to appreciate it, Jenny!
DeleteThat bird feeder box is really unique and standing out
ReplyDeleteRo, I like to walk by and keep an eye on it :)
DeleteThe Bullfinch is beautiful! I have never seen these birds here, although we do have a Titmouse.
ReplyDeleteGinny, we on the other hand don't have the Titmouse. I was happy to see the bullfinch as I haven't seen any of those in quite a while. But we aren't allowed to feed birds on our balconies, as that might also attract rats.
DeleteIt's ages since I last spotted a "Domherre" here, but I know they live in the deer park. In German we call them Dompfaff :-)
ReplyDeleteMeike, I didn't know that was their name in German. (Actually I didn't remember the English name "bullfinch" either although I recognised it when I looked it up.)
DeleteWhat a cute little bird house/feeder. Someone is feeding those sweet birds.
ReplyDeleteBarbara, yes, that will be cemetery staff who put that feeder up.
