Reed buntings are regular visitors here too - the males are so handsome with their dapper collars & jackets. We too have many red kites in the area - even sometimes visible from the kitchen window, soaring over the garden. No fewer than four fluttery, gaping, baby robins being fed by one efficient parent at the weekend. Hadn't yet reached the harassed stage! I give it a week. Blue & great tits seem confused by their own reflection in the shed window and keep flying at it in challenge or possibly just curiosity. Covered the window in the past to prevent exhaustion, but they just keep coming back. Left 5 fat balls in the cage 10 days ago before leaving for a week away - all gone of course, on our return. Starlings make short work of these, so we usually ration supply to one a day. Saw a lovely bird new to us last week in Cornwall - a pink chested linnet bathing with three goldfinches in a glinting stream. Six ringed plovers feeding in wet sand on a long empty beach, too. Lovely to still be seeing birds new to us in this country at our advanced age!
