With the warm weather the last few days the starling bar has started to melt on the side that gets the sun. I have one more in stock and that will be it until the winter. There is still a decent stock of other foods and I will continue to feed these until they run out.
Starlings have pretty well vanished now with only one or two juveniles from late broods coming to the feeder. I have been seeing the occasional house sparrow and now that the starlings have gone the blackbirds seem to be hanging around more, including at least one juvenile. I have also had occasional visits from a song thrush.
I saw a collared dove in the street outside the house this morning which was a suprise as I haven't seen one in the garden all year, probably longer. I haven't seen the woodpeckers for a week or so as well now.
