Great to see the Redpoll:)

I think if you reduced the size of your photos to 800 to 900 pixels longest side - it would make them easier to view and enhance the end result.

all the Nyjer seed blew out of my feeder...this is the result! The Chaffiches were there too

Was watching these tits out the back garden when I noticed the neighbour's cat sneaking in ( bottom right -out of focus in view of long lens).
Ran out and chased him away:pac::pac:




Edit

This is a photo with the cat in focus and the feeders 'out'



Sorry about the mess at the back of the garden - it's a bit of an uncontrolled compost heap

I brought our cat indoors for a couple of hours to protect the ground feeding birds...he had a great time, he isn't usually let in.

I'm not sure if this photo is from your garden and this is not directed at you specifically.

Just a timely reminder to all. Please remove fat balls from the plastic netting they are supplied in.

I never bought any - but thanks for the advise which may be useful in the future - I would never have known not to use them in the manner they were supplied.
