Very early this morning this pair of Bullfinches arrived on our seed tray, which contained broken up Suet Balls and sunflower hearts. Amusingly, the female didn't seem to want to share breakfast with the male, so she lunged at him. The male Bullfinch then decided to come back on his own five minutes later to complete his breakfast, without his aggressive female companion! Unfortunately, very low light levels means this short video is quite dark - it was taken at around 8:20am today - when it was barely light!
