Birds in our gardens

We spent a delightful afternoon with Amanda Skull, talking about the rise and fall in numbers of bird visitors to our gardens. I think we surprised ourselves on our knowledge of the birds we see regularly at our bird tables - we scored ten out of ten on Amanda's top ten chart. It's amazing to think that starlings, which used to be the thugs of the bird tables, are now on the endangered list. Let's keep on feeding them and enjoying them in our own back gardens.
