Happy New Year

Post by Joyce Riley »

Being a 'fair weather birder' these days, I was put off going out this morning by the rain. Nevertheless 12 species in my garden including a pair of Bullfinches, 2 Nuthatch & 3 Goldfinches wasn't a bad start to my 2012 Chorley area list. Incidently, a pair of Collared Doves have now started to land on the tray attached below the Niger seed feeder and they seem to have developed a liking for Niger seeds. Has anyone else noticed Collared doves eating Niger seeds?

Joyce,

I think Collared Dove is the only species which eats Niger seed in my garden! Happy New Year!
