Watching the birds

The fairies have been busy getting the garden ready for the rspb Big Garden Birdwatch. All the fairies love to welcome the local wildlife into the garden.
 
 
They have been gathering seeds and nuts and taking over the kitchen making delicious 'fat balls' for the birds to dine on.
 
The first guest to be seated was a rather feisty robin, who didn't seem to want share and chased off a number of other feathered visitors.
 
 
Fairies are not very good at spending a whole hour being quiet, so it is a good job that birds are very friendly with the fairies and aren't easily scared off by them.
 
 
 
Bramble loves to spend time rummaging through the leaf litter and so do the birds who visit us.
 
 
Not all of the birds who flew in to our garden were as obliging as this little fellow, most were much too quick to get their picture taken!
 
 
 
 
The girls have promised all the birds that they will continue to keep the bird feeders well stocked and that they will always have a place to roost x
