Haven't seen Chaffinch or LT tits but do have regular visits from song thrushes, robins, dunnocks and coal tits. Have also heard tawny and barn owls (at night), jackdaws and since May, cuckoo and swifts. A pheasant often strolls through the garden very casually too - until the dog goes outside!

All in the top 10 plus we have breeding Moorhens every year totting about the garden most of the year.Very timid though. The chicks are like little black fluffy balls. Very cute. We give them names like Molly and Mike.

Greater spotted woodpecker, 2 wood pigeons, collared doves, long tailed tits, blue tits, gold finches, chaffinches, greenfinches, sparrows, starlings, swallows, wren, blackbirds, mistle thrush. We have a few wild patches of nettles, and wildflowers which help attract them I think as well as several feeding stations and nest boxes.
