    Why do birds suddenly appear?: A guide on how to attract birds and butterflies in your garden

    Oh dear, you do have quite an issue don't you with the birds. Yes the bigger birds seem to push out a lot of the lovely smaller birds.

    Mausie it sounds like you have a production line going there. Do you make them all for family and or you donate some of them? My former mother in law used to make the puddings in the cloth and she would make two huge ones every year and hang them from the door frame for a while to dry them out...
