Very clever birds. They have learned how to grab hold of the perch on my bird feeder with one foot and get at the seeds. It looks ridiculous, but it seems to work. On even manages to impersonate a humming bird and no longer needs to grab the perch at all. Si2Au Plenty of jackdaws in my neighborhood.

I prefer the very discreet and faithful little robin that I see every winter at my window, peering at our daily lives.

Your cats don't get crazy with all those little, funny, TASTY birds? Last week Sutica, my lady-killer, was getting mad for a big crow flying otside our windows; and she spends days watching swallows, and killing them for my breakfast, or my sister's (she takes turns, doesn't want we get overspoiled...)

We've only got sparrows and starlings here at the moment, both in plague proportions - but that comes from living in the middle of farmland I guess. We've just spent the last few weeks planting flowering red gum trees to hopefully, try and encourage some native birds to come in and live. I hope they do keep the nest.
