This is a closer view of the feeders,,
Looks good Roland! Have you seen any birds using them yet?
Hi Louise,, sorry for the late reply,, all work no play etc,etc,,
When I was putting the feeders up the seed feeder came apart and quite a bit of seed fell onto the ground, after restocking the feeder I simple brushed the other seed all over the garden and left it,,
Had nothing on the feeders as yet but have had a couple of really nice looking blackbirds feeding on the ground the last day or so,, hopefully just the start of things to come.
I know it will take a while for the birds to find the feeders and start using them, just have to be patient,,
Hi Roland a cracking feeding station you have got there..do you have sunflower hearts in one?..quite a few of us swear by them for attracting the Goldfinches,Greenfinches and Sparrows.

Hi Alan,, yes having read that so many of you guys put out sunflower hearts I thought I"d give them a try,, there in the yellow feeder, the last in the line of 4,, just need some birds now,,, oh the waiting is killing me, ha,ha,,,,,
LOL yep it's now just a waiting game..after a while if you still haven't had any visitors try moving the yellow one out into the open for a bit if you can so the birds can see it.
The sunflower hearts are the most popular in my garden too!
I hope that the wait isn't too bad! You could scatter a few seed on the ground, see if that helps attract some in. It will be good for your blackbirds you saw!
