Peckish Secret Garden Wild Bird Feeding Station (Clarkston G76)
A used Peckish Secret Garden Wild Bird Feeding Station. Would benefit from being located in a sheltered area as pole has a tiny bend in it due to it being caught by a gust during storm winds when fully laden with feeders full of bird seed. Used but all parts present and connectors with wing nut fasteners still working nicely. A bit weathered and some rust but nice green colouring still apparent. Pretty shape to arms that feeders hang from. Total height of bedding station is about 200cm (2 metres). Sturdy ground spikes (two pieces which anchor into earth/lawn) have connectors which fit onto the pole. No tools required, just a case of threading pole together (this has been done already), and sliding other parts onto the pole and then fastening them in place using the wing nuts. This is what Peckish (the brand) says about it: "Our unique designed Peckish Secret Garden Dining Station is perfect for attracting colourful and beautiful birds to your garden with multiple feeding opportunities and a fresh water source. It features a decorative leaf design and antique finish, perfect to enhance your garden. Made with steel powder coated metal ensuring a durable product and an attractive hand finish. No tools are required to build this dining station, it simply screws together. 10 feeder hooks for hanging feeders Strong & stable based fork Includes a mesh tray for food." Pictures show my feeding station disassembled for easy transportation, plus one picture from the Peckish website to show how it looks in split new, assembled condition. Hope this might be of interest to someone. I do have other wildlife/bird stuff listed that might also be of interest. Looking for someone to uplift from me but could deliver to someone very local.

Bird bath or wildlife stepped water bowl (Clarkston G76)
Promised
I have two Wildlife World Nature Oasis Bird Baths - Sustainable Outdoor Design for Birds, Bees, Butterflies & Small Mammals. Both were bought in 2022 and are made of Polyboo (recycled plastic mixed with bamboo fibres). They are said to be weatherproof and shatterproof. They are both a bit weathered (faded, loss of colour), one more than the other, but both are still fully fit for purpose. Since I have two bird baths and other means of hydrating wildlife in this garden these are now surplus to requirements and need new hones. Happy for both to go to one taker, or for them to go separately. now. Simply place on slabs, gravel, grass or earth. Best placed inn amongst some planting. Stepped construction so that wee creatures that might fall in (hedgehogs, birds and mice) can get themselves back out more easily. It is however recommended to put a couple of stones in to make it easier for some creatures, even insects, to use the water. Easy to rinse clean. So feel free to grab both or just take one. Looking for someone to collect but happy to deliver to someone if very local.

12.55kg Everyday No Mess Mix bird seed - best before 5/4/24 (Clarkston G76)
Promised
Two bags in total available. Happy for someone to take both or maybe two people to have one each. Date of manufacture/bagging 5/4/23 and best consumed within 12 months, so by 5/4/24. However that's a best before so the seed is still likely to have some nutritional value. One of the photos is from the GardenBird website just to show what the mix looks like - seeing my bags have not been opened. These two bags contain 12.55kg each of wild bird seed mix. It's a the Everyday No Mess Mix (kibbled maize, kibble wheat, wheat, naked oats, peanut granules, pinhead oats, red millet and soya oil) that is sold by and currently costs £15.99 a bag. This is what they say about it: "Treat your wild birds to the Everyday No Mess Seed Mix which will keep your birds happy and your garden tidy! This seed mix has been specially designed to include ingredients that won't go to waste, as your feathered friends are guaranteed to love this mix. This no mess seed mix provides garden birds with a range of nutritional benefits and can be used throughout the year to ensure birds are well fed during the cold winters all the way through to the busy breeding seasons. The added benefit of the Everyday No Mess Seed Mix is that your wild birds will consume all the contents of this mix which means we are confident that no waste or mess will be left in your feeders or on the floor beneath." Why is this available? Forgot I'd bought these. From arrival at my place they have not been opened and have been stored in a dry, cool, stable temperature, rodent-free basement. Bags are dry and haven't been nibbled by anything. Contents don't appear to have clumped. Obviously I don't know what the contents are like inside the bag as I haven't opened them but I have happily used the same mix in the past. I hope they're of use to someone, or to a community group. Preferably looking for someone to uplift them but might be able to deliver if taker is very local.
