It's been a busy few days so apologies for not being able to do a more substantive post.
The window feeder has continued to provide some excellent views of the blue tits who are regular visitors to the feeder and quite tolerant of us being behind the glass as long as we don't make any sudden movements.
The blackbirds had taken to using it, but they had a habit of sweeping all of the food out of the feeder leaving nothing for the other birds. We remedied this by moving the separate perspex roof of the feeder lower so they couldn't land (there is plenty other food that we provide that they can access).
We were pleasantly surprised when one of the skittish coal tits plucked up enough courage and started to be a regular visitor to the feeder. Unlike the blue tit, he was gone as soon as he saw any movement at all. I managed to get these shots because I had staked out the feeder. There where far more bad ones than good.
When I was with you, I saw a couple of Tits at the window.
