and yesterday I saw two of them bathing in the gutter on the boat shed

The near-constant flock of blue and great tits at the bird feeder outside our window is great fun. The rain showers of the last few days aren't putting them off, either. The cats will sit and stare out the window like they're watching tv.

I'm starting to seriously think about one of those wildlife camera setup thingies (but I haven't committed because researching something like that could be so time-consuming).

I'm seeing the magpies less, though. I wonder if they are annoyed by the little birds, or just busy? I already followed recommendations about their preferred food...

The wildlife camera sounds good. I know how bleah things are for you at the moment and maybe it would be difficult and spoon-eating to investigate, but also maybe the payoff would be worth it?
