[QUOTE="irart, post: 583685, member: 277270"] Great to know that there are so many "bird" people on this forum. Mountainman, try feeding your bullfinches on sunflower seeds, and then they will leave your tree buds alone. They only eat those when there is nothing else available We have three (two cocks, one hen) that seem to be permanently attached to our seed feeder. We also get a Jay that visits and likes peanuts. To see such a large bird dangling from the feeder is quite comical. My particular favourites are the long tailed tits. They always arrive mob handed - at least six of them, leave after about five minutes, and then don't appear again for an hour or two. Our biggest problem is with grey squirrels - rats with fluffy tails. They have completely wrecked for plastic feeders, so I have to have all metal ones these days, which aren't cheap, but to survive their mauling. [/QUOTE]
