And blow the goose house down . . . . . . . .
We had blustery easterly winds yesterday, not our normal wind direction, and it blew the goose house apart! Thankfully no one was in it. We didn't spot it until it was time to put everyone away, so Bruiser was left to defend for himself overnight. To be honest if Mr Fox chose to pick a fight with him, good luck to the fox!
It is still quite windy today, so the house was dismantled and a temporary house put in it's place. Should be fun trying to get Bruiser in there tonight. I must remember to be busy when it's time to put the birds to bed tonight.
The old house can be repaired but will need a frame to attach all the wood to, which needs a better day to attempt. It won't be needed for a couple of weeks as Spotless doesn't start to hatch until April and they will stay in the nest box initially.
All the best.
