Some new visitors in the garden this week, making good use of the bird feeder.

Unfortunately two squirrels are still causing us problems by making holes in some of my pots and containers.  Yesterday one did get a bit of a scare by nearly running into the path of a cat.  Maybe this will keep it away for a while.  Two ravens (or are they rooks?) and two wood pigeons are still paying regular visits hoping for a feed, and the battle of the blackbirds over territory continues apace.  All this activity doesn't seem to bother the blue tits and our little robin too much. They just do a quick retreat - the blue tits to the safety of their tree and the robin to its vantage point under the hedge.
