« Hello Mr Fox... | Coming back to the garden »

A clear blue sky means it is sure to be cold. We are taking the opportunity to get out and do a few outside jobs but are wrapped up really warm.
The garden needs a good tidy up but I am waiting for the last few flowers to finish. The Rowan tree is looking beautiful in autumn red, the berries that are left are now bright yellow and the contrast of the two is wonderful.
The little birds are coming in good numbers to get some food and are enjoying sunflower seeds.

Yes I feed them during the winter and a bit in the summer when they have chicks. If there is lots of food around I tend to stop.

Pro quite mild here still with thick cloud cover today...and no birds yet in our new garden...
I do realize the shrubs and trees need to grow a lot more before they feel safe to return so must be patient...but do miss them a lot...Have a lovely rest of the weekend, gardengirl...

Have you got food out for the birds? They will come back as soon as it starts to get a bit cold.

Pro yes, we've got a nice little bird table for them... Did put the same tray back in they were used to feeding from but have removed it as it does hide the seed from them, now it's in the bird tray itself so we're hoping when the winter does come in, they'll come back again... GBHs...XXX

I am sure they will be back.

Very mild down here in the middle of the day and quite sunny and warm, but you can feel the chill in the air and after dark it is very cold. No frost yet though.

It will not be long. I quite like a nice crisp frost but soon get sick of them.

It is a bit frosty here too. Do you feed the birds in the winter? I used to put out bird seed but the Trio would eat the seeds left on the ground. Eegits.
