Acrobatic Sparrows.

[Khandro]

Now the sparrows have learnt all the acrobatic tricks of the blue and great tits I have been feeding for several years, the aggressive sparrows don't give the tits a look-in. I don't mind feeding the sparrows as well but I'm wondering if i can find a way for the tits to get a fair share. Any ideas?

Not sure if sparrows can deal with fat balls.

(this answer provides many possible responses.)

Well they couldn't up to this year but this lot are a complete circus act; I can have three on one ball ! I've tried fixing the balls to a tight overhang and they can still hang on. I wonder if there is a food tits like but sparrows don't - but I doubt that. They are complete hooligans and my garden is full of them.

It's a shame khandro, there are places that would love more sparrows.
