Was in the garden and I heard that familiar song. He flew around abit, headed towards the birdhouse and about the tine he was fixing to land, a huge gust of wind blew him off course. He flew around fir 4-5 minutes and headed off. Atleast one came by and checked me out

That's great, he knows where its at now. The 2 most active times at the housing is morning and evening, so keep an eye out a hour or so before dark.

That one came back 2 more times while I was in the garden yesterday and I was just out there putting some wild fall plum seeds in pots to sprout and this time there was 3 of them. They hung around in the house for abit til a BOP came through. They took to the sky’s BUT did come back and land again a few minutes later. I don’t know the difference in the birds yet but I know 2 were solid and one had a white breast. Not sure if that was was a female or a young male. Least I’ve had some interest
