    Are you a politician by any chance Peter - you could get one on your expenses? image

    Sorry - not sure there are plans available for that sort of thing. You'd possibly have to build a little island while initially making a pond, but if you mean the 'raft type' ones I'd guess you build a basic wooden raft with poles lashed together and timber on top, with the nesting material on top of that , and push it out into the pond  a length of rope and secure that well at the side of the pond with a post into the ground. 

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    Joking aside - did that politician's duck house not look a bit like an upmarket kennel? It had a roof on and everything! That isn't it but this looks fairly easy to build!
