A nice surprise was a female bullfinch, also a single greenfinch on the feeder, (first this year) together with a few goldfinches. Other birds noted were 2 dunnocks, 1 robin, 2 blue tits, 3 wood pigeons, m and f blackbirds, and 2 starlings fighting over the fat-filled coconut shell.
I was watching again at tea time ( 5pm) and in the fading light spotted a male bullfinch and a second female, which were all pecking away for about 10 minutes at the new buds on the neighbours tree which is next to my boundary hedge.
