This Spring we had a novel idea
regarding the abundance of
birdlife frequenting our garden.

What if, besides assisting them
with food during their busy nest
building season, supply materials?

So, we did just that, a large and varied
selection of twigs, straw, wool etcetera  
under a cover at the end of the garden.

It has become their en passant depot,
feeding area, water trough and bird bath,
plus the construction selection area.

Next year we are going to encourage the
crows to occupy our chimney pots, now
redundant, since the heating installation.

ps.

No too late, in Ireland they are still in
the process.
