Just watched an episode of Mr Noel the supervet.

He’s kin good and is set up is as good,if not better than some NHS hospitals. I would hate to see his prices, but he does love his work
Oh and has a lot of irons in the fire with his R&D.

Good question. Eye intend to be friendly to them by putting out food and water but not so much food as to change their current habits. There's lots of other gardens with humans around which do the same as yer can see bird feeders up. I think I have two nests in bushes in mine that I know of. Eye like them but will keep a distance from them. It would be interesting if eye could hand feed them but as you say they're not pets. They've had run of the garden fer months without seeing humans in it so it may come as a shock I'm there. They have been watchin me from the garage roof while I'm in the window. They always keep their distance but still do as they please.

its good to put food out a watch what birds arrive , we put food out year round and they come ago i presume depending on availability of their natural food, we have a few tits and sparrows a couple of black birds and a robin that are regulars ,but theres quite a variety that turn up for a few days or weeks at various times,the bird table is placed in an area in front of the front window so we can see them whilst relaxing i move the table every week or so, we havent yet but we want to put some nest boxes up
