Feeder Friends.

A few images of two of our regular garden visitors, the Starling and House Sparrow, sharing one of the feeders filled with suet with meal worm pellets.

 A male House Sparrow sharing with a Starling.

Two juveniles happily gorging themselves. At any other time of the year the Starlings rarely allow anyone else to occupy the feeder.

"I'm sure someone is watching me through that window".

"I've got it all to myself so time to get stuck in".

All these shots were taken 'through the window' with the 450D and 70-300mm lens. For this months images of Birds, Butterflies and Odonata please check out my photo blog.  FAB.

    Thats interesting Frank. My feeders are dead at the moment, I was wondering what the pellets were as your birds seem to be enjoying them.

    Very nice Frank. We don't get the House Sparrows here, but in town they have them and the Starlings only visit our feeders in the harsh Winter days~
