Stockers Lake Rickmansworth - Bird Feeder Visitors

Sitting in a hide at Stockers Lake this week, I was watching a bird feeder that was visited mainly by at least four squirrels.
 
This was not a great advert for squirrel proof bird feeders, whilst..... 
 
....below a Brown Rat was picking up what was dropped by the squirrels.

In between the squirrel visits birds did manage some time on the feeder, including this male Greater Spotted Woodpecker...

 
...., seen earlier on the top of a dead tree, whilst.....
 
....Blue Tits and....

....Great Tits waited their turn.

 
Incidentally, when I left the squirrel was still feeding happily inside the feeder so I wonder if it found its way out!
