The coal tits have quickly become the most trusting of our garden visitors. All other birds will fly away, at least to perch on the fence, if I emerge from the back door – the tits are happy to keep doing their thing as I walk around the garden. I can even sit on the grass just a couple of metres from the feeder and they don't seem to mind.

The larger robin is more hesitant, I don't see the smaller one very often now. It will come to the feeder while I am sat there but will eye me suspiciously and, only when certain I won't move, grab a meal worm and immediately fly off with it.

It's the 1st of September already. I don't know where the time goes.

I've performed the monthly ritual of backing up my blog's media uploads from the month before. This is part of the three pronged approach including:

  • saving the actual code to a private GitHub repo, and
  • the automated, hourly backup of the database to Dropbox

In other news, Manu's first 'People and Blogs' interview is now available with Manton Reece, founder of micro.blog.
