Yesterday I put out the leftover skin & stuffing from Sat's roast turkey. Soon a huge black-backed gull appeared & most of the turkey disappeared. As the gull flew off, a small brown face peered round the corner of the garage to see if it was safe to venture on the scene. Seeing all was clear, the robin came round, happy to discover the nutty, cheesy stuffing was still there. He had his fill before flying off. The next to arrive was a blackbird. By the afternoon, it was time to put out second helpings. They soon disappeared too.
This morning, the robin was on the garage stoop, eagerly looking for food to find none. I hastily put out the last of the turkey leftovers plus some cheese rind. Herring gulls arrived this time, but only after the blackbird & robin had helped themselves.
