Monkey nuts

Another dull day weather wise. Where's this heat wave they promised us last week?
The Jays have been interesting to watch today. This one spent ages sorting through all the monkey nuts then proceeded to swallow four whole ones in one go and fly away. He certainly knew the ones he wanted.
Then this Jay turned up. Obviously been feeding chicks madly for a while judging by the state of his feathers.
Squizz and Snarly Sid have been funny today. I watched Snarly Sid grab the monkey nuts off the feeder then run to different parts of the garden and bury them. Only for Squizz, who rarely goes on the feeder, if Sids around, go to the same spots and dig the nuts up again and eat them. Sid's going to think he's going barmy when he looks for them later. Mr No Tail has been around again with his chicks. One of them seems to be a lot more inquisitive than the others and keeps wandering off. He looks so cheeky, I'll have to give him a name. Micro Moths, arn't they ace
