Fox-proofing

Today is a very nice spring day in London, one of the few we have every year (and with luck tomorrow's London marathon will also have a nice weather for the runners). It is time to start digging to insert a wire mesh around the coop to prevent foxes from going under it.

Then Marie-Louise and I inserted the mesh (cloture en fil de fer) in the hole:

Then we recovered the dig back with the ground:

Finally, time to put the coop (poulailler) in its new location and set up a little notional fence for the hens (polite chickens should stay hopefully within that part).

It was past time - overdue really - for an 'apperitif', but a little pastis was well deserved!
