In the garden - Ideas for planting, cultivating and nurturing

Landscape Says: "Robins will love this nester. Made from frost resistant ceramic, it should be positioned well before the nesting season somewhere with leafy cover and high enough to be out of reach of predators."
This ceramic teapot nester can be easily fitted on to a wall or fence. Suitable for robins and wagtails. Ideally face between the northeast and southeast to avoid facing the sun and westerly winds. Nesting is most likely during April and May and in the event of chicks hatching there will be frenetic feeding activity by the parent birds. Take care not to disturb during this time as any intervention may result in the eggs or young being abandoned by the parent birds.
