A quick wander around Warley Place in Essex with Ken at the weekend gave me a great opportunity to see whether fat and peanuts smothered on tree trunks brings birds in.
We will have to wait and see what happens next, but after the first hour and a half there was no response.
Blue Tit, Great Tit, Coal Tit, Chaffinch, Moorhen, Magpie and Woodpigeon were spotted from the first hide. We decided to move on to the further hide and here found much the same, with the welcome addition of Goldcrest, Nuthatch (Ken's photographic muse) and (Yippee!) Firecrest.
No photos but good memories.
