With my new project I have fulfilled a dream.
Instead of the small bird bath with a diameter of 0.8m under the fig tree I have built a pond with 4 x 2 meters and also a hide hut embedded 1m deep in the ground.
So I'm now sitting in the photo hide with the birds at eye level with a maximum distance of about 5.8m to the motifs. I started building the pond at the end of November, the hut was made in individual parts in the garage and assembled on site on February 5th and 6th.
About the whole project I will create a separate post with documents for interested replicators
My goal is for an annual documentary to produce monthly photos and videos of the migratory birds that stop in our garden on the west coast of Cyprus. A wildlife camera attached to the pond provides a 24-hour overview of all bird species and what else can be found from the animal kingdom at the pond.
