Great pic of Boris! Taken with my mobile and I dont have zoom lense - I was just sitting or standing next to him! He is getting cheeky ha!

my new bird table! a tree I had nearly blew down with the snow and the wind earlier this year, so had it chopped down before it did any damage, then screwed an old table top on top and voila! :-)

Meet Boris!! He is getting so used to me now I think if I sat in the garden with food in my hand he would come and feed. He was the first to try out their new bird bath and absolutely loved it! It was lovely watching him splashing, fluttering about in the water and then sitting on the plum tree preening himself and putting his feathers back in order.

Doris again - she is not as friendly/tame as Boris. Doris is rounder than Boris and her red chest is a bit more curved than Boris' red.

Meet Doris

Bird Lady

I am beginning to feel like the bird lady out of Mary Poppins! Since I have started putting fat balls out in the garden I now have a garden full of birds. Two pairs of robins! One pair are there regularly throughout the day and I have named them Boris and Doris - photos to follow. I have also had to have a tree chopped down as it nearly came down of its own accord with the snow and wind earlier this year. So I had a brain wave of chopping it down a few feet off the ground and putting an old wooden table top on the top of it to make a bird table. Then I have put some thick polythene on top so I can clean it and to prevent seeds, I am now putting on it, from falling through the slats. The birds love it! Then I had an even better brain wave! I got my old large cat food bowl out of the shed, gave it a good wash and filled it with fresh water and put it under the bird table. :-) So now not only are my birds well fed but also watered and clean ;)
