@RobMacShots @ArthurButcher44 @xSorchaLewisx @WTBBC We have squirrel-proof feeders but we also have some smart squirrels as well as jays. The non-squirrel proof feeders like yours hang on vertical wires, some over 2' long but I've seen squirrels drop down the wire from the branch above and nick the feed.

@RobMacShots These are more like what I've been trying to capture. I could do with a slightly longer lens and a window that opens so I don't have to shoot through glass.

Finally got a couple of photos of our jay. @RobMacShots

@RobMacShots @ArthurButcher44 Our family of moorhens are quick off the mark when I feed the fish at 6pm. The youngsters take no notice of me and run right past my feet. I've offered them fish food but they prefer it wet.

@revslimiter Is that the car that was owned by Denis Jenkinson who wrote for Motor Sport, navigated for Stirling Moss to win the Mille Miglia as well as a sidecar champ amongst his many talents and achievements.

@RobMacShots @shelsleywalsh Ditto here, some regulars, including a yellow Tiger Moth and an Avro Anson that's based at Sleap, near Wem.

@implausibleblog It was the bankers and like Sunak with their money-making schemes and scams that nearly bankrupted the country. The Labour government did its best to salvage the situation. Instead, the Tories took over and just made everything worse - and the bankers are still getting bonuses.

No Loton Park for me this weekend but a rare wildlife sighting to make up for it. Shame it was from a moving car with camera set to single shot auto-focus switched off! @RobMacShots

It looks as though it's a record year for orchids here. @RobMacShots
