Toft Gilleard Bird Hide what a waste of eight and half thousand pounds, more water coming in than a colander, very poor quality for the money this hide ...

A hide at Covenham is extreme hide building Anthony. I am not sure you'd feel safe on stilts that I made but if I make it waterproof then you'd get great views of the birds as you float across the reservoir.
