That's more like it and you can get some lights to go on it from Poundland.£90 is a bit pricey is it not? There's a bird feeder in this weeks Garden News for £19.99, it doesn't have lights but it has several feeders and a bath.

My neighbour has an absolute thing about it … she has even put a sheet out on her line to scare away birds from our bird table. I’m not saying a word to her. The rain washes away birds mess …I’m biting my lip .. I’ve gotta live here and I hate confrontation unless necessary and I don’t want issues if we ever have to sell up …Will look a right mess in a couple of weeks with bird mess.

What really upset me … there was two little dead birds who had fallen out of their nest and died and she was relieved … now isn’t that awful .. I seriously don’t know how on earth I bit my tongue. Sorry to rant. The post just triggered my upset about that mainly x

Squirrels are rats with good PR, so the saying goes. The grey ones are an invasive species and while they ate cute, the red ones have my loyalty. Beatrix Potter and The Tale of Squirrel Nutkin can take credit for that!OH put bird food out on the ground every day, until we saw a rat eating it.
Also, she had a feeder on the end of her rotary line, and a squirrel gnawed through the line in several places to get at it, and I'd only put the line up the previous day
We have an empty pop bottle with a bottle top bird feeder attachment ,cost less than a fiver.£90 is a bit pricey is it not? There's a bird feeder in this weeks Garden News for £19.99, it doesn't have lights but it has several feeders and a bath.

I would feel the same May. We are lucky nearly all our neighbours feed the birds. It's quite fun to see the Jackdaws on our neighbours roof social distancing. If one moves near they edge away.My neighbour has an absolute thing about it … she has even put a sheet out on her line to scare away birds from our bird table. I’m not saying a word to her.

When I was working my manager had to have the council out twice due to rats. She was told they would charge her if she called them again as she was buttering scones and putting them out for the birds.OH put bird food out on the ground every day, until we saw a rat eating it.

No …. Sorry didn’t want to make you feel awkard …. Just the bird Poo situation … just got it off my chest .. tis all x triggered was a strong word … I should have said “ started me off “ lolMy post wasn’t intended to upset anyone, especially those who feed wildlife in their gardens.
I have bird feeders, a bird bath but recently rid my bird table as was not hygienic for the birds anymore.
I just find this a mix match of a creation in my view it will easily become a mess with bird seed landing in the bath and bird mess.
Just my opinion if you require a lamppost light, planter, bird bath and feeders they would be better kept separate, so can be kept clean and hygienic.
