HOW TO BUILD AN ELEVATED BATHING/DRINKING POOL - WILDLIFE MAGNET - HIDE ADDITION

I'll be honest I've never been a fan of reflection pools!! There is no doubt that even a small body of water can be a real magnet to wildlife and birds in particular. Everything needs access to water to survive, period. I therefore took the decision to create a small drinking/bathing pool at the permanent hide just to see what it would attract. Within a couple of hours we had dragonflies, a small flock of Goldfinches and much more!!
I was on a bit of a mission with this project as we had a decent-ish forecast for the next 48hrs. So grab a brew put your feet up, sit back and watch me slog away trying to get this project up and running in quick time.
