Judging from what I've read, this thread has run its course and might as well be concluded.
What I have posted is relevant to the topic. What you have posted is not.
Ironically, you are the one treating it like a chat room. You are certainly fluent in 'pidgin English'. :rolleyes:

Umm, got a bad feeling about you and what u think is ok.
So relevant or not stop it.
tweets only thanks
Or nthn is fine also

Culling birds , yea great reading , take a doughnut and relax more
Appreciate all birds.

Read my Profile status: it describes you to a 't'. All the P's.
Try to think independently of others. It might, just might, gain you more respect.

And I never once said the word pigeon is easy to spell. But maybe Ur attempt to shame me will help embed the wobble
:)
Much preferred term rock dove\feral pigeon or stock dove or collard dove or turtle dove
Or eurasian dove.
Stock,rock, and woodpigeon all look similar

Non need killing

I so wish u had a random off the chance stop off fly over by the long tailed.(shelly birds) I love that idea feeding in gardens :) Ty also I have been seeing lots of goldfinch on the front of the house , but still haven't tempted them into the back garden. They I notice are very fussy about Thier trees.

I'm definitely seeing more tits around these days but that hardly surprises me in the current circumstances.

Also, seagulls have been getting a bad press in recent years particularly because they seek 'a free meal' away from the coast, courtesy of unsuspecting tourists. I would put them on my culling shortlist too. There are enough pests around in society as it is! :eek:

I'll let you know of any others I might add in due course.

Harder times are coming for the little tweets,

Will assist in setting up a day\night cam for this winter. It will be very exciting to see the results.

Fill the food tables , supply the food stations :)

Enjoy the autumn sounds.

Spot the spotted woodpeckers :) good luck.

There are generations of seagulls that have never caught a fish in their lives. Many were born and live in the high street, they depend on tourists for food, I wonder how they're coping during lockdown? We used to feed a one-legged seagull at the beach car park, we haven't been down their since March. Strange, and i know I'm soft, but I often think of that seagull, knowing that it can't compete for food. :(

What's the best bird you have seen so far this year?
I've looked everywhere for a bird forum and didn't find much,

Have you seen any rare birds?

What birds visit your garden/home?

Yeah I am hoping to spark some conversation about our beautiful birds and what you have seen.

Thanks, in advance for you view.

Wren.

Ive kept a record of the birds that visit my garden over the past 10 years. And ive had the regular birds like sparrows. Blue tits blackbirds etc. but over years i get a few more colorful like jays and goldfinches. I recently spotted a woodpecker which was a nice looking bird. Never seen one before that.
