@Myphatself My local birds are my #BirdNet. Nothing happens in my area without the birds knowing.
They tell me, if I listen what’s happening around the property. An ancestral magpie my Great Grandfather took a photo of a hundred years ago.

Feeding high energy live food can be problematic. Leave a bowl out and the pecking order means the youngest or most needy (Squeak, Minty) miss out to Pushy or Mouse. Spot ignores live food 🤣
So metering out food or demand feeds by single birds can help.

Pushy
Feeding live food can be problematic. Eat too many 🐛s and the birds fatten up. Most are too shy to do this via sticks, so they miss out.
If I leave a bowl unattended, pecking order comes into play and the most needy miss out.

The budgies are screaming... yep their music play list has finished
I really need to work out how they can turn it on for themselves!
