  1. See above! No Redpolls or Siskins here, but very large numbers of Coal Tits.
    Jackdaws and feral pigeons are banned from here!

  2. As Chris we haven't had any Redpoll or Siskin, but a couple of Coal tits. We are getting several Pheasants, couple of Redlegged-partridge and I can send you a few feral pigeons Chris. You usually get the Redpoll and Siskin before us Kevin so I will look out for them.
