I have jackdaws regularly scoffing the fat balls. They do make a mess dropping bits all over the grass so the smaller birds benefit.

Sitting at the desk by the kitchen window, blue tits working hard look very ragged....

Bit of a moorland run this morning, nice to hear the Curlews again and some great views of a Tree Pipit, both Stonechat and Grey Wag carrying food to nests and a pair of Willow Warbler feeding in the heather and grass out in the open. Plus lots of Mipits but couldn't find a Dipper.

I’ve had so much enjoyment today spending (too much) time watching the newly fledged sparrows quivering, and blackbirds scurrying around being fed.
I’m looking forward to when the starlings fledge. It’s normally an absolute riot when they arrive.

Interesting D2 because when I heard one last night near here, for if not the first time ever in 21 years certainly not for most of that period, I was actually a mile and a half to two miles from home almost in a direct line towards yours. Like you I had to stop and do a double take because I was sure I'd just misheard something.
