In early summer 2006 I had just planted a scabious and was sitting back on my kneeler when a hummingbird hawk moth settled on it, and I was able to watch it close up for several minutes resting and feeding. Wonderful. this winter we have had a small flock of Bull finches and to my delight on Big Garden Birdwatch day I had all seven at the same time.
We also get visits from a wood mouse during the day, it nicks the bird food from our low bird table.
