Nice going sean - looks good so far

 

Have you decided where the door is going to go ?

the door cant be seen as its on the side nearest the wall, i have made the door small so it will open inwards.

Will have to learn to limbo

have drilled holes in order to take coach bolts and am using wingnuts with them so dont need to carry a spanner, I just want to make it as portable and easy to put up and down as possible.

 

Was going to put a few tunnels at ground level but not sure what size they should be , any advise very welcome.

Sean,

 

I used tunnels about 2 foot across narrowing to 1 foot on my corvid traps - any smaller and they won't go in.

 

Remember to put curtains of netting to hang down from either side of the ladder otherwise all the jackdaws will go back out the way they came in

 

You can use it as a pheasant catcher at the end of the season too
