Drying in the sun |
The girls approving their nest box material! |
We have been really lucky this year as Rob and Sally-Ann gave up precious time to cut our very small patch of meadow grass. It's the same old problem for us: cutting a small area of long grass to use for hay. Rather than the big expense of hiring an Allen scythe which would only be used for 20 minutes, Rob and Sally-Ann used hedge cutters - not an easy job to cut grass and leave it in swathes. Unconventional maybe but effective and now we need some dry and sunny weather.
The girls came out on slug patrol and gave it their stamp of approval which is just as well as we use it in their nest boxes! Thanks very much Rob and Sally-Ann!! Oh, and I should also say that it smells fabulous as it dries in the sun.
