Cheers Lee, been raining most of the afternoon here, only just sowed some seeds in side, must be about 6 weeks late.

As promised some photos.

First my favourite Black Bird, comes down following a call every morning to see if there's any food ready. I normally stay near by to keep the Starlings away.

Did manage to get some vegetation on the base, the light green tuffs will be repainted a slightly less bright green.
The Tank is now in for weathering.

Well at lease you got some vegetation planted. The back bird is awesome how you have trained it John. Are those mill worms?

Thanks Paul, think I need to give those dried plants a touch of green and esp those very light green tuffs.

Hi Lee. A few seed trays sitting in the sun today as its sunny !!!!
Yes the bird comes as soon as I call him, suddenly lands on the fence. Gives a loud clucking then comes down to eat.After feeding him self takes a beak full of dried meal worms (I soak them in water ) to feed his brood.Does this about 4 times then goes off looking for live food !

Had a good afternoon yesterday and managed this.

More work needed on the figures, don't require the full amount this time .Think need to bed those tracks in with some mud being pushed out when the final fixing takes place.
Now seeing what "crap in the back " suits as that flat deck plate is crying out for some .
