Then Barney came in - to see what Fluffy was up to perhaps - or to encourage her to do more of it?
After that brief flurry of activity, there was an hour long pause.
After a while Fluffy appeared.
This time she came empty beaked.
Fluffy's arrival had its normal effect on Barney - he left in double quick time ....
.... shortly followed by Fluffy.
Oh Fluffy! You're supposed to be bringing it in!!
At the end of the day, there were still only a few bits of nesting material in the nest box.
Still, tomorrow is another day! Though the weather forecast is predicting cold, wet and windy weather for a few days yet.
