delboy_187 900 Posted January 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 Just put out the feeders an they'll come . Feed them well threw winter they'll come again next year . . As it gets colder all the small birds stay amongst each other .I Started feeding sparrows while hoping I'd see a finch. 6 7 months later . As the dude says charms of them . No songs Peter c**ts think you mad . An oul pet Goldie wouldn't go astray must be rung . Any thing comes around he'll call them. Pm me Peter Quote Link to post Share on other sites

fireman 10,774 Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 Im only in this house a few weeks so hopefully I get some finches in there's plenty around. I was thinking of playing bird songs on my mp3 to try to attract birds or would that be stupid I was out on a dog walk today and over flew 3 bullfinches,i peeped/whistled at them and they turned and landed in a bush near by to see what it was peeping at them,sometimes if you learn a little of the bird songs and can copy them a little it is worth trying it although it don't allways work... 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Delboy have you taken them as pictures or stills from a video ?.....ive just had a similar camera but I cant suss it all out yet......is it one of them you can walk away from and it takes a picture every few seconds ? ( or however often you set it to ).....I think they call that a fish eye view that's why it looks kind of distorted at the sides mines the same but again I cant work out how you get rid of it..................................I cant be doing with instructions I just press buttons and see what happens 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Omanyra 2,518 Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 (edited) As say I watched the pair building and rearing..goldie cocks in the wild dont do much around gathering material or actual building the nest, they will accompany the hen to places where she collects, in over 50 years In rarely seen a cock goldie carrying nesting material in the wild Edited January 12, 2015 by Omanyra 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
