Bullfinch and Great Tit (09:29)

[Bea]

Another Greenfinch with an abnormity, think this a different one than the first]

Unfortunately, the finches are those who are most vulnerable to disease at the feeder. Maybe it's because they often sit in the food, both at the feeder and on the ground, and that way get more often infected through excrements, while the tits mostly takes the food and fly away to eat it? At least it's my experience.
Of course it's many explanations.

Not a single Greenfinch is visiting my feeder here at my home, but they are out on the fields, I can see them there.

A time ago (last year? the year before? ) there was some desease concerning Blackbirds.

Another topic: many greenfinches die repeatedly by trichomonaden - "Trichomonas gallinae"

Biker - yes, but one has to get used to the new layout after so many years with the "old look"

A Great spotted Woodpecker came in with hope for a fatfood-refill - but seems it was pleased with seeds and peanut instead

[asteria]

A very aggressive siskin had attacked anyone even worse than the greenfinch until the greenfinch returned.

Current food mix seems to have a bigger part of grain than the previous, pigeons are very intersted in it
