Sharing this on here because I know there are other birdwatchers around, just had a great spotted woodpecker on my bird feeders in my back garden! Had my binoculars next to me so got a good look
I have a question. When I was a child we often had greenfinches in our garden but I haven't seen as any for years. Does anyone get greenfinches visiting their garden?
I wondered that recently as well. Turns out there's been a decline in their population as well as chaffinches:

Yes that's interesting as Chaffinches used to be common and again I haven't seen one for a while.
How lovely
Robins are wonderful.
So friendly.
Enjoy
A general no mess mix so it has some sunflower hearts in it. I just got the bins and bulk bags in so I have nyger seeds, kibbled peanuts, suet nibbles and a no mess seed mix, as well as suet balls a blocks, and dry meal worms. The robin was bobbing around as I was filling everything telling me to hurry up
