Was in hysterics this afternoon visiting a Birds of Prey Sanctuary in Whitestake Preston Lancashire, took this video of these chaps who took a fancy to me, so now I know what a laughing kookaburra sounds like

Old birdhouse fell down the tree, so made new one today (and also lots of dust in the garage :-doh). I do not think it is good idea to treat the wood with antiseptic as birds will probably not like the smell.

Black-birds arrived yesterday and started to occupy just built house. It is very interesting to watch their activities directly from the window. IMG_20180329_085656.jpg
