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 ;)
