Last year i had a few of the smallish plastic plant pots left after I

and robin has made use of them already. Looks like three big chicks in
blackbird nest. So I'm guessing they approve of an excellent recycling
measure




Sounds like a great idea! Good for you.
I keep heaps of spares (all sizes) to double or triple the layer of pots
around plants-in-waiting during the winter months. It seems to help.
