    The paving is beautiful and I’m sure will be very appreciated in the rainy season. I love when you show the small projects like the ducks, planting trees, working on the pig house, gifts from the neighbors, you know like the daily life. So interesting. Best Portugal UTube couple 😍😍😍😍

    At least it isn't a Bufo Marinas....also known in Aussie as a "Bloody Cane Toad", which was introduced (without any research done) to help eradicate the Cane Beetle in the Queensland Cane Fields. The trouble is: the Cane Toad lives on the ground...the Cane Beetle lives up in the Sugar Cane. Never the twain shall meet, and now, we have a very invasive poisonous problem.

Cannot believe how beautiful you are making your Project Portugal, I love watching your progress. Well done both of you!

Will continue to watch you and would just like to say thank you, I can only describe your videos as a good book that you cannot put down and just want to keep reading.

    Hi guys good to c the muscoveys are all good. Little tip the small ones tend to get stuck in the pond if they get to wet. Might drown. As they get older watch daddy cause he might start pecking at the little males and sometimes they drown them just what they do but if you take dady out it can prevent that. I have plus minus 60 mixed ducks just thought I'd give my 2cents worth of advise

If it's a grafted tree as mine is make sure you prun off any bulbs or branches of the root stock, otherwise the grafted section turns into the root plant. Only let new growth bud and grow out of the grafted branches for the first 3 years. I hope that helps Take care D
