To the rescue!

A bit of high drama last night.

Not to mention house demolishing

and very bad DIY ...

It all started when there was a noise like  half a ton of bricks

falling down the chimney.

We've heard it before so knew immediately that

 it was another bird falling down it. 

We roused the Madwoman out of her torpor

on the sofa and she undid the hole that already exists in 

the boarded-up fireplace from where birds have fallen down before.

This one was too big to get out of the hole though.

She stuck the camera in side to see what was in there

and it turned out to be a pigeon. 

Obviously too fat after stuffing itself on birdseed in the garden ...

So The Madwoman fetched the tree branch saw from 

the garden shed and made the hole bigger.

It still couldn't get out.

So she made the hole even bigger ...

Eventually, it decided that the dimensions were

satisfactory, and out it popped.

We've had a starling in there before (the same one twice), 

and a jackdaw. Now a pigeon. 

They are getting bigger all the time.

What will be next? 

A swan?

 

Just checking that the hole is empty

And double checking. Very important, is double-checking

Okay, the clear-up crew can move in now

And yet another bad DIY job ...
