No Goldfinches this morning, but a whole herd of Blue Tits flitting around!

Pigeons starlings Black birds numerous Sparrows Blue Tits I haven’t seen a single Goldfinch all year.

Not sure if it’s the fact I no longer use feeders .I now use a bird table and a ground feeder

'Our' Goldfinches feed on sunflower hearts. Nothing else, not even the niger seed they're supposed to love! The Tits are on the fat balls and square block thingie.
The pidgeons can't land on the feeder so wander around hoovering up the bits that fall to the ground.
We also have magpies and couple of those ugly looking (to us) grey headed black crows plus, obviously, Starlings, but less than last year.

And a couple of Blackbirds

I only ever use sunflower hearts as I find the mixtures fall to the ground and start shooting
I have had a feeder full of Niger seed up all year and it usually attracts the Gold finches not seen one this year.

Currently waiting to take pictures of clients for their CV's.

One wants to be a hairdresser and is currently running a small salon using his own tools for anyone who wants a haircut first, and is making an extremely professional job of it.

Morning, overcast in Manchesterland. Planning on a off road loop again this lunch, hopefully the clicky pedal has gone. I haven't washed the bike, so we will see.

MrsF has almost finished setting up a permanent WFH space, but with the shuffling of monitors, I need another ruddy cable.

She'll be using the desktop's monitor, but switching between the desktop and her work laptop. Got various HDMI to DVI, HDMI to USBC, HDMI to display port, but no HDMI to HDMI which she needs for her work laptop. Grr.

The irony that the Wifi won't work without a cable...

You're mixing dessert food with non dessert food just for starters.

Saves time.
