Can you send some colourful birdies to my garden please? The only birds I have seen on the feeders recently have been pigeons and doves. Even the tits have deserted. On the ground I do see some dunnocks and blackbirds and we do have an occasional robin, but apart from our chooks, that's it bird-wise

That's a shame because I know you tried hard to lure them in.
Could be the nearby hedgerows that's keeping them away. Lots of insects around now for them.

Maybe the cats are frightening them away?
Our neighbour has two (nasty bird-killer) cats that hide near the feeders and there's a marked reduction in visting birds of all species when they're about. One of them caught and killed a male Chaffinch a couple of days ago, the other has killed several Bluetits that we know about.
We have a water jet that's activated if cats go near but we can't use it atm as the connector is broken We won't be able to use it at all if there's a hosepipe ban.
I think Spring has finally arrived. I have seen great tits and a jackdaw on the feeders today. Also seen some coal tits in the front garden. I was at Julia's aunt yesterday lunch time and there were quite a few garden birds rushing around...
