House Martins - again! Anyone want to put a nest up?

Hello again, I was hoping that artificial house martin nest boxes would be able to go up on the new college building but despite writing to the Governors of the college twice, I have had no response. Would anyone be interested in putting up any house martin nest boxes on their home? It would be good...

House Martins - Scaffolding around Amwell House

If you are interested in helping the only colony of House Martins in Ware, please look at my Facebook page as the nests are now actively being used but there is scaffolding around the building where they nest.

Prison Rehabilitation Scheme

Hi All,

Just wondered if anyone else had had a young man offering to sell household goods on a Prison Rehabilitation Scheme?

I would like to help but he called at a bad time which I explained but he just swore at me.

I wonder if they are legitimate?

Thank you.
