I paid for a bird bath , lots of cash . They never even sat on the side of it . It has been in my garden for 2 perhaps 3 years . They just didn't want to know .
A couple of weeks ago I decided to turn this old patio table top upside down and put water in it . I placed it in a sheltered spot . The birds love it !!
Plenty of space for a good splash . clean enough to drink .
The blackbirds in my garden are so fussy about what they eat . They love all kind of biscuits but the other day I put some Orio's out . They didn't even give them a try . I cannot complain , I don't like them either.
We have had such a lot of heavy rain again . I don't hold much hope for my small plants . Some of them were almost floating![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtm1IVjvRTd-diDZRC10EwEiFtiXqd7rgzwMYlgii6FzTaD4dQmpqY4My7EshQ9j4XoZUCFH2YaAoCB-LiM-Ih4oiDDN-Wx-RQkdX6wW3aGwCuL25-e9V5EJp76i5VhQkqCp_9FBapU6du/s320/CIMG1720.JPG)
For anyone who likes to make soft toys there is a pattern for a small dinosaur on the blog of beloved-ones.com. It would be nice for a fund raiser .Off to have my tea , spaghetti bolognaise
