Late morning, I saw a few small birds feeding - chat with hubby follows:-
Me: There were some small birds at the feeder, the first for a while;
Him: There haven't been any lately;
Me: Perhaps the feeder is a bit exposed;
Him: Could be;
Me: Perhaps the birds need to know the food is available.
Him: Okay, I'll put a message on Twitter!

Och, well... I'll let him know, Jennyta.
I'm sure that the birds will find the food easily enough without tweeting about it! Flighty xx
Hahahaha....very clever! You may just be overwhekmed with the response though!!!xxxxx
Hi Mr F,
The birds are still rationing their visits. There are a lot of other kind bird feeding people around and about.
I'll take a temporary rain check on the feeders being overwhelmed....no flying response to any twittering yet.

ha ha ha!! nice rejoinder! We're in the process of building a bird table ... but I have an uneasy feeling that we'll only see pigeons, magpies and wretched gulls :(
Hi GillyK,
If it is an open table with some shrubbery around and about, you may get fewer gulls than you think. I have a friend who has one, close to her kitchen window. She throws a handful of mixed seeds on it when it seems empty-ish, and the small-ish and small birds thrive on what is left out on the table. If your table is in wide open space, that might allow for a free for all, or some.
