I saw two muntjac deer this afternoon, peering at me through the trees. I think that's what they were, anyway.

Which is the reason why we built a bird table, to keep the food off the ground, away from Loki. We only get the wood pigeons though - the birds turn their beaks up at the offerings on the table. There's room enough for them too!

OK beanbrain - if you want an argument on Nature`s treasures then PM me, I will take you to the cleaners, but don`t crap up a decent thread on this Forum. You are at my disposal chum, play ya cards, I`m waiting.
I wonder why on earth you are a member of this Forum in the first place.
Now stop it, leave this thread to the people who care and come and meet me face to face like a man.

I did this recently and it took a few weeks before the birds would land on it and eat the seeds, I don't think they liked the smell

) not to use it so I will ask what he used.

)I have seen a squirrel once in the garden, wish he would come back.
Even rats are Gods creatures although I am careful to put out just enough food that I think the other birds etc will eat straight away, so there is not a lot left lying around to encourage the rats.

If you disagree with what a poster has said DO NOT get personal - feel free to have a mature discussion about what's been said but don't degenerate the thread into threats (veiled or otherwise), personal insults or other such deplorable behaviour.
