Choosy Birds

The birds continue their feeding frenzy.

When it reached the stage they were eating £10 worth of Sunflower seeds and Nyger Seeds per week, I decided they would have to go on an economy drive.

I bought less expensive feed from my local supermarket (ASDA).

The birds are not keen on it however, it is lasting much longer simply because they are not feeding as much, fussy little blighters that they are.

You can see here, the dark coloured seed is Nyger Seed (expensive) and they are eating that, one chap is actually sitting on a branch waiting his turn. The light coloured seed is the less expensive stuff from ASDA, and they are ignoring it. 

They must be socialists, ie they are getting something for nothing and still they are not happy!
