Well, that was a really fun read into pigeon towers and the biodegradable ones made out of mycelia. I am trying to imagine what it is like to eat pigeon - I guess I am glad that we have root vegetables!
ReplyDeleteHi Jerry: Yes, we just happened upon this display while exploring Amsterdam near a community garden. I found the history of the pigeon towers and this new construction fascinating. I guess I eat chicken and turkey, so I'd probably eat pigeons if I was hungry enough. They are cute little birds, though.
DeleteInteresting, I had never heard of biodegradable dovecotes before.
ReplyDeleteHappy WW!
Yes, it was a new concept for me, too. The construction, functionality, and concept intrigued me.
DeleteSuch an interesting concept — biodegradable pigeon towers made from natural materials. A thoughtful mix of ecology and design.
ReplyDeleteI thought so, too. I was unfamiliar with the concept, and it was interesting to learn about it!
DeleteI did not know this possibility. Interesting!
ReplyDeleteHappy WW and a fine week!❤️😘
Hi Suzana: I wasn't familiar with it either. I hope you're having a wonderful week, too!
DeleteBrilliant. Love this.
ReplyDeleteThank you for joining the Wordless Wednesday Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Wordless Wednesday. ♥
Hi Sandee: The WW blog hop is fun--learning new things from people around the world through simple photos. :)
DeleteWow, I had no idea mycelium pigeon towers were a thing!
ReplyDeleteYes, I was surprised too! It seems like there might be other, related applications for mycelium garden projects, as well.
DeleteWow! Good share. That's amazing. #WordlessWednesday
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, Lydia. WW is fun!
DeleteOstras, es genial. Saludos desde España
ReplyDeleteHola. SÃ, fue muy fascinante. Disculpe mi pobre español.
DeleteWhat, wow this is amazing! I had no idea, great topic to post.
ReplyDeleteYes, it really captured my attention! The community garden was fun, too. I should have spent more time there, but...so much to see!
DeleteOdd but interesting!
ReplyDeleteAgreed. I wasn't sure what it was until I read the signs. Fortunately, they were translated to English, as well. And then doing a little research into the history made it a little clearer for me. :)
DeleteNetherlands! cool, looking forward to hearing more about your travels :) [if you get multiple copies of this, sorry! something wasn't working earlier]
ReplyDeleteHi Hollis: It was a wonderful trip. So much to share, but very limited exposure to formal gardens. Re: the comment, apparently Blogger was having some issues with comments during the past few days, but they appear to be resolved.
DeleteInteresting!!
ReplyDeleteYes, this was an entirely new concept for me. It seems like a great, sustainable idea.
DeleteThis is fascinating, Beth! I've been to Amsterdam several times and visited some community gardens, but haven't seen these pigeon towers--thanks for sharing this. Tina
ReplyDeleteHi Tina: I'd love to hear more about your trips to Amsterdam. It certainly was an interesting place--somewhat different than I'd imagined. :)
