Monday morning feeling

Woke up wishing it was Sunday and think the birds did too... Raced out to clear the open seed feeders as it was all water logged. Put fresh mixed seed and sunflower hearts in those with a few suet pellets. Fruit suet and pastry balls on the bird houses (x 2) with a few SF hearts for good measure. Cup of tea and 20 mins whilst getting dog's breakfast and saw: 1 Male Blackcap, 2 Chaffinches, 1 Robin, 4 Blackbirds, 2 Wood Pigeons, 2 H Gulls, 1 Blue Tit, 3 Starlings, 1 Dunnock, 1 Coal Tit. No sound of the Songthrush this morning.
Lunchtime I popped home to re-stock the feeders for the soft bills. Firecrest was milling around the large suet feeder as usual. Glad to catch a glimpse of him - it cheered up the day!
