When young JB and Rooney visit their grandparents’ farm, they’re in for more than just a country day trip. While helping Grandpa collect firewood in the Gum Tree Paddock, they spot a goanna and launch into a chat about all the creatures that call the bush their home. Grandpa shares how he carefully tends to the paddock, creating a sanctuary for native wildlife.
Back at the house after lunch, Grandpa builds a bird nesting box and attaches it to the stump of a freshly cut tree, sparking Rooney’s curiosity. With Nana’s Nestbox Book in hand, Rooney gets an idea: maybe his cousin Stan, who’s just started woodworking at school, could help build more nest boxes. With encouragement from Stan’s mom, Aunt Jo, they gather supplies, and soon Stan’s woodwork class jumps in too, turning the project into a community effort.
The Little Homes On Honeypatch culminates with a heartwarming day of hanging nest boxes on trees and sharing a creekside picnic, showing how small acts of care can make a big difference for nature.
