Crazy About Birds

This has taken the husband weeks to create. It started with a huge oil tank that he's had for years just lying out with all the other junk. He managed to wrestle it - with the aid of his tractor - up to the workshop area. Then he used a cutting torch to cut a door in it. Fashioned hinges. Found another bunch of stuff to make a roof and a finally a pole for the top with a pennant (entirely fashioned and painted by him).

And! He announced that he had a particular place where it simply had to go. That place of course happened to be already occupied by a plant of which I was rather fond. So there was some shouting at that point, after which I moved the plant, and divided it into three bits in hopes that one of them would like its new position.

Thus - here it is. Whatever it is. He calls it a kiosk. I think perhaps it's a *folly.* Says he might put garden tools in it as it's very near the vegetable garden. My prediction is that it's soon full of wasp nests.
