After 3d printing a bird feeder, I put it to the test of the experts. It proved quite popular!

Very clever use of a 2 liter bottle and your 3D printer! Well done!

Thanks Kim ... It was the first project on the printer and the first project since just before Covid for me.  There are now three out there and they are full of birds all day long. Great entertainment!

Cheers

Love the birdie feeders  8)

And you have more Morning Glories out Dave than I have ever achieved. I hope you will be keeping the seeds for next year they look to be a good variety  :)

I had a Hummingbird Hawk Moth in the garden yesterday. Not a good picture but first time I have had one.

I've always thought it a bit of a weed, Google suggests it may be valerian
