Remembering a phrase from some film – “if you built it, they will come”, I started waiting. Well, after I’ve put some bread crumbs obviously.1st day – I waited.
2nd day – I waited. (Crumbs seemed to have frozen, so I added some new ones.)
3rd day – I was still waiting.
4th day – THEY CAME!
The feast lasted about 5 minutes as it seems that there came the wrong ones!
I expected lots of tiny yellow bellied tits or bright red robins, or at least little brown sparrows, but I got just magpies, which are well known for being thieves.
Anyway, the crumbs have been replaced and I’m waiting again.
P.S. I was told that the special term is feeding tray.

Would it help if the openings were smaller than the magpies can reach? It's a very cute feeding tray :-)
Who are they?
Hmm... now I'm not sure. Thought they were magpies (sarkos), but I guess they are not... a book on Lithuanian birds would be handy :)
I think they are kekshtai :)
