    It's awesome putting out food for birds as you can see them as they eat and it's really interesting!

    I've made 7 bird feeders they've have really helped me in getting nature stars. some of the birds are very dirty so i very carefully gave them a quick bath.

    We get lots of house martins,blue tits, chaffinchs, Dunnocks,pied wagtails, starlings, pigdeons and some times a green woodpecker. They come and eat the food in the morning that we give to the chickens!
