We Are In Nesting Mood …..

The nest that our wood pigeons built last year is still in “Andy’s tree” ……
……. and we have seen that the said pigeons are back and watching from their tree of choice …….. You might remember that last year they hatched the ugliest baby bird ever!!!!
So we are going to try to give them as much peace as they need just in case they want to use their nest again this year.
We have also found out Andy’s old wicker eel catcher and put it in a tree at the bottom of the garden,  just in case any smaller birds might like to make it their home too.  About three years ago a couple built their nest in it, but we think it was a little too close to the house and they were disturbed too often  and in the end abandoned it ……
……. perhaps here, they may be tempted to give it another go ……. we shall see.

Well I certainly hope those Wood Pigeons don't read your blog Monkey - sheesh saying they had hatched the ugliest baby bird ever!!! I'm shocked at you. All baby's are beautiful in their parent's eyes - even GRANDPARENT'S eyes - you mark my words!!! JantheFan x

Andy's tree is going to be lovely when the leaves start to sprout and hopefully, baby birds start to chirp from their cozy nests.....polish up the binocular's lenses to watch Andy's tree alive with all sorts of new life!....Dianne

Hopefully you won't catch any eels in at anyway.
