Dodo Nesting Box in town centre.
As reported in the latest edition of the award-winning Western Gazette (page 6), Langport Town Council recently voted 4-3 in favour of a nesting box for Dodo birds just along from the town hall. South Somerset District Council is paying for its installation but it's the town - in other words local taxpayers - who will be paying for any electricity the birds use.
For those of us not familiar with dodos (and you soon will be apparently) then check out this link:
CORRECTION.
Apologies, as this went to print we checked the local paper again and realised it's a charging point for electric cars that's being put in at Langport, not a nesting box for dodos. Sorry.
