Garden Birds

 Throughout the year at  Home Farm we are fortunate enough to be visited by many species of garden birds.  We do our best to encourage them by placing a number  of   feeding  stations  at  different  spots  in the garden.  This includes some  window  feeders  in  the  dinning room which allows guests to view "our birds" having their breakfast or dinner whilst  they are having  theirs.  What's  on view very much  depends  on the time of year, but we have recorded almost forty  species  of  birds  over  the years.  Some of our more regular and popular visitors  include  blue-tits,  coal-tits,  robins,   greenfinches,  goldfinches,  and siskins  along  with  a  family  of  red  spotted  woodpeckers.   Families  of tree-sparrows  can  often  be  seen  feeding   from  the  fat  balls near to the dinning room.   Just  occasionally   we  are  visited  by  some  larger  birds and our bird table  plays  host to  a  pair  of  local   buzzards  and  as  I  type there  are  three red  kites  circling   overhead!    For   those   guests   whose   interest  in    birds wants  to  take  them   further   afield,   the   wide  variety  of  habitats  we have close by provides many excellent  birding  opportunities  no  matter  what  the  season.    We are happy  to  provided  our  guests with any help and advice we can give.  A set of binoculars  is  available  for  loan.

Home Farm is the ideal base for a few days quiet exploration. There are lots of places to visit and things to do, all within easy travelling distance of our front door.
