l have always loved Dovecotes. And have always wanted Doves. In fact, so much so, when l first moved to Tasmania l bought 5 beautiful white fantails.... l had them 5 days. Each time they took off for a fly, one less came back until l had none. The local Goshawks and Falcons appreciated them even more then l did! So l gave up on doves .....but now have this! l think we will stick to it being used as a bird feeder on a grander scale this Winter, as opposed to buying some more beautiful white delicate birds who would last 5 minutes up here!
At the moment it is sitting between the Vegie Garden and the orchard. Probably not its final resting place but it will do for now! It's about 2 metres tall so needs to be quite far away or else you are looking up at it from underneath! This is the first one built like this as its creator usually makes bird feeders and little houses. So this one is a special one off made especially for me which is quite cool!
l just love its little fancy roof!
Happy Christmas to me!
