I'm sure that I have mentioned previously that there are houses being built around us. Obviously this will change the variety of wildlife we see in and from the garden, but we're hoping that we will gain a few creatures as well as inevitably losing a few.
In my usual slapdash way, I have been documenting, in the form of a photo diary, the construction of the house directly behind us, colloquially known as Plot 1 until the new owners give it a name. Neither the house nor the diary are finished yet, but the latest photo was taken yesterday evening, so I hope you will excuse my jumping the gun in showing you progress so far. I think you will understand why.
Gosh that is going to change your outlook somewhat.

Indeed! However, when a fence goes in between the two properties, we have trees and bushes to plant to help soften the view. And perhaps tempt a few birds into the garden to explore the newly-created shelter form the weather.
