Somewhere I would love to go have been inthralled by its recovery since it happened, watched a program about dormice there some years back, doormice the world over have two litters a year to maintain

Have a look online for designs to build them a nest mate.and get it screwed up as soon as. they might get in there within a few weeks.

We have 2 nests of sparrows in the roof every year.the wife keeps the bird table stocked up for them.

You can sit on the patio and they fly down over your head every minute it seems to the table and back.

And yet you can't hear a noise from the bedrooms of bathrooms below the nests.

I've got no where to fix a false swallows nest to my house as it's got about a 8" thick of insulation around it with a chipping coating. I wouldn't be able to get a screw long enough. It's a old concrete house built as a temp in 1940 by the army I believe. I've built a blue got box out of dome old ply since yesterday though.

The original pluck looks very bop but the carcass stripping not so much that’s more mammal especially as most of the ribs and a back leg are missing ? what part of the world are you in trigger if you don’t mind me asking ?
