Today we saw some different behaviour from one of them...
It landed on the post which supports the bird table and took advantage of a weak point in the bark...
and before we knew it the bark was shredded like paper...
Presumably it had found a food supply.
When it flew off the extent of the damage was revealed...
Strange, considering there is a ready supply of Niger Seeds for it to eat.....
Perhaps this one thinks it's a woodpecker!
