 For my first attempt at wildlife photography I bought a bird feeder and stocked it with nuts. After hanging it in a tree for a day and observing ‘small things’ feeding I set up the camera on a tripod to see what was arriving.I expected that the birds were all sparrows, but was pleasantly surprised to find four different species of bird feeding from the feeder. The birds visiting include Greenfinch, Long Tailed Tits, Great Tits and Blue Tits. There is also a Bullfinch feeding from the ground under the feeder. I’m hoping that it will make the transition to the feeder or else ill be chasing the ground feeders at a later date. I was surprised to see how much blue is in a Blue Tit, though I’ve never really been that close to one to observe before. I didn’t have a clue what was feeding from my garden so I visited the garden birds website to identify them. You can find their website here. Add your comment |
