    I have ground together some wholemeal bread and cheddar cheese and the blackbirds really love it. Here is one that came down immediately I put it out.

    I'd like to be a blackbird in Gardengirl's garden. They've got the sweetest feeder.

    Thanks everyone. I can't believe the amount of blackbirds we have in our garden this year, it must be the bread and cheese :D
