Beautiful pictures and so informative thanks! I have also recently started paying more attention to the birds around me and also setup a bird feeder in my garden :) we went to the botanical gardens the other day and I was amazed at how quickly the birds joined us for our picnic! I think that they are hungry- not enough easy pickings out in nature yet :P
Feeders in the garden attracts them, they definitely know how to enjoy a free meal @wildwanderer
