Hello from Wales

[paulinemiller10]

Hi Everyone, just joined this forum, I have ten pet rabbits, two white doves, love the garden and wildlife, have hedgehogs coming for supper in the summer, and lots of woodmice live at the bottom of my garden, love the butterflies and bumble bees that that turn up in spring looking for homes, and all the birds that come to be fed in summer and winter, the grey squirrel that has moved in this year, and sometimes I get a big brown rat which I catch and relocate to the country.
I love watching all this wildlife, and I have cams all around the garden to watch where the action is, at the moment the cams are on the mice who come for supper everynight, and it will soon be time for the hogs to wake up, the picture at the bottom is one of my hogs snapped from the live cam, last year I had baby blackbirds, and robins, so hoping for some nests in my garden this year.
Living in the centre of a small town I feel very lucky to have all this wildlife visiting my garden. Looking forward to getting to know everyone. Pauline

Sounds like you're living in the centre of a small zoo

Hello Pauline, and welcome! Sounds like a lovely garden you've got there. I've just set up my first webcam in my garden (yesterday) and finished installing my own "designer" bird feeder. Love to see some more images from your cams.

Thank you for the welcome Glsammy, yes my garden is pretty in summer when my buns hav nt eaten my plants lol.
Oh your going to have fun with the cam, I love mine, much better than television. I too make bird feeders, dovecote, and all sorts, just for my own use that is, I would love to see your designer bird feeder, have you got a pic? posting a pic of my garden, will post some web cam shots in next post. Pauline

Yes, I sometimes think I m in a zoo Stuart, but with a difference, all my bunnies run free most of the time, don t like to see animals locked up, we did have two females and one male bun, but had an accident before giant lop could get to the vet lol, and now we have ten, all much loved buns, here s a pic of then in the garden being naughty eating my flowers. Thank you for the welcome. Pauline.

Hi Mark 43, thank you for the welcome, I would nt say I have myself sorted lol, I' m usually in a mess, wires all over the place, try to hide them with plants, but yes, I do love my cams, posting a pic of one of the mice that come s for supper.I found a dolls house that someone was throwing out, and I ve used the plastic furniture to add interest to the mice pics lol, this is a pic of the mouse on the table, they are not very good as they are snapped from a cheap live cam.

Pauline,
My "designer" bird feeder was very tongue in cheek! It's very utilitarian.. made from bits of this and bits of that.. the birds seem to like it though

[paulinemiller10]

Lol Glsammy, your just like me, I collect wood off the beach, or use old wood, I find the hogs like old wood, they don't like the smell of anything new, posting the cottage bird feeder I made, the window was from the £1 shop, and the rest made of bits of wood, I mixed up some plaster for the front, smeared it on the wood, and gave three coats of paint, the roof is just wood and bin bags on top to keep the rain out, but I had to spend a bit on the thatch, it came in a big roll, so going to use it for other nest boxes. but this cottage is not all what it seems, as it take s on a more sinister role when its used for rat catching.
