Lol Pat. One of mine "hides" in full view under some overhanging twigs. The birds sit in superioroty on top of the holly hedge. They have never caught a bird. I can safely say this as they bring me all their trophies, I think they expect me to cook them and present them in their dishes. They like to leave mice where I won't see them and step on them with bare feet.
What a bizarre site Roy - may have to add one of my fiends to the end!
