    When I went out to give the birds their food this morning I got mobbed!!!! I was late in feeding them as I usually do it at 6.30am but stayed in bed until 7.30 this morning as it's soooo cold. Poor things can't find food for themselves in weather like this. :cry: Came in with frozen fingers and boy did they hurt when they started to heat up. :(

    -10 here this morning so I'm off for another cuppa. Maybe I should hibernate until spring. ;) ;)

    Poor little buggers, I bet they were glad to see your face this morning. That happens to me sometimes as well Eileen, I get up a little later than usual and put out the food. Suddenly 20,000 starlings appear :eek:

    Must pop out to the shops today to replenish my stock of raisins for the blackbirds before all the shops close. :D
