The sound of siskins.

The new batch of green and yellow siskins have hatched during May and make an unbelievable noise calling out to be fed.... so do turn the sound up...but not if you meant to be working in the office!
Our cats Maisie and Daisy go crazy when the sound is up. 

Some brave ones leave the nest for a while and sit quite naively on the ground unaware of any feline dangers so we both keep a good eye out for them. This baby male siskin was happily sunbathing on the sunflower heart feeder when it gently took off and floated down to the ground near to where we were sitting on the bench outside the garage. I could sense the possible danger so stood up to shoo it away as Maisie and Daisy were sunbathing somewhere nearby. It floated up a little way and then landed on Ray's head who was luckily wearing a hat as it was quite sunny. It sat quite content in its newly found nest until I scooped it up gently and replaced it on the bird table out of any danger.
