I have got a few pic’s of my new y/b loft in the garden and the four young birds I have in it , Loft has been up for a couple of weeks and im just starting to make a few changes and as these move forward I will keep you all up to speed and any tips or advice is always welcome….
New y/b loft in the snow this week...
The loft is facing the line of flight and my house backs on to fieldso im hoping the birds will fly out that way and stay away from the house’s ?
Im also going to put a fence down the back of the loft and screen it from the house’s and keep the people dpwn the street happy? (hahaha) we all know that will never happen…..
Traps covered with plastic to stop cld winds ...
On my home made pepo box's
Any new pic’s of work carryed out will be on next week hope the breeding seasonis going well ?
