Скачать или смотреть Building birdhouses | Early February

The ground is still frozen so I thought I’d put up some birdhouses. The store was closed so I decided to make the birdhouses myself.

It was a clear and cold day. My fingers were numb and my nose was running. And my carpenting skills are certainly nothing to phone home about. But here we are! A couple of hours later the boxes were built and placed - which involved a vertigo-inducing adventure ten feet above ground in strong gusts.

Enjoy!

Gardening on the Edge refers to the thin strip of land on the southwest coast of Sweden where the climate is mild and wet. Just a few miles wide, is it rated as a USDA growing zone 7, while the inland (and highland) of southern Sweden is rated a 5.
