How to attract birds into your garden this winter
It's been a tough year for birds. The peculiar weather has meant berry crops have been disappointing and hard to find.

Thanks for the reminder Liz. The children & I sometimes make fat balls during the depths of winter - it's amazing to see how quickly they are consumed!
We sometimes put them inside halved coconut shells (is that the right term?) and hang a couple off the washing line and leave others on the ground.
