We're putting suet cake in the garden & obviously the name "fat balls" is a bit funny and I went into an fantasy that I could download all the ads for it and make a video mashup around "Birds love fat balls!" It was then pointed out to me that no such ads exist. Which is a shame.
So @itskatelliott has put a motion sensitive camera in the yard to see who is eating our fat balls
For anyone following this story – the fat balls are gone. Time to make a cup of tea and then check the camera for video.
Well we have footage of nighttime Bungle. But the camera ran out of space because it turned out there was 7 episodes of Dexter on the SD card from 2013.
Stuck a new (32gb) card in and we'll continue this mystery tomorrow.

OK. It *might* be a crow taking the fat balls. We've got footage of one pecking and in the next shot it's gone. Mystery not solved. New footage tomorrow hopefully.
I hesitate to say this but we've also got two tits gobbling up our fat balls.
A blue tit and and a coal tit. But to stop this thread getting too long just yet I'lll just post the blue tit.
