Jan's Wildlife Forum - Part 3 (plus other nerdy stuff) (129)
Juneau: I got some advise from the guys on YouTube...they think that the moving 'star' that I saw was actually a satellite! Wow! First time I've ever seen one of those!
Wow weren't you the lucky one?
Well, I hadn't thought about it before, but I imagine it must be quite common to see satellites moving across the sky. It's just that I am never hanging out my up stair's bedroom with binoculars very often staring into deep space! 
Maybe I will now! You certainly wouldn't have been able to see it without binoculars. They said that they are usually seen 1-2 hours after sunset, which this was.
Still haven't seen the comet. It's just been cloudy/sleety every night

Was it a Nokia or a Samsung?
Godsgift: Was it a Nokia or a Samsung?
Naaa - It was more like an Android

Well... I am hoping it was a Nokia!!
I know I have probably put this link on here before, but I thought I would include it again as I would highly recommend the bird seed that I get from this company. I have bought their "No Waste Bird Seed" 20kg sack several times now and it's really good. There literally is NO waste at all! To make it last a wee bit longer and to give all the birds a better chance of getting some, I sprinkle it all over the front half of my lawn....they find and eat every single bit of seed and there is no waste, no husks and even better, absolutely no seedlings!! The 20kg sack costs £26.43 and the delivery cost is £1.99. This will last around 22 weeks so would cost approx £1.29 per week... in the summer months, probably less. This time I have decided to try the pack of 6 x 1/2 coconuts, so I'll let you know how I get on.
I have quite a lot of different species of birds in my garden, but there are one or two that I very occasionally see sitting in the oak trees just beyond the garden. I would love to attract them in closer.
Found this fun little site - you can just put in the species that you are interested in (for me it was the Nuthatch), and it will come up with a recommended bird food for you to try. My funds are very limited so I won't be ordering any special bird food from this site (see recommended affordable bird seed above) but it will give you an idea eg. with Nuthatch, it just came up with Peanuts, which I have anyway (even though they have to be 'rationed'!

Hey that's a great way to know which bird food to buy, looks like I'll need a truck load of peanuts plus a mixed bag of other too
