Thought you might like these 2 recent pics of the Sailing Barge Cambria, currently under restoration. The barge hull is now well under way, with all the frames in making up the parallel rectangular part of the hold in place, and the boys starting now to form the more intricate curved sections at stern (you can see in the distance) and in the bow (under the camera man).
The baby wagtails are cunningly concealed near the starboard bow, down a cavity between the inner and outer skins of the starboard topsides, between 2 of the rotten frames. The shipwrights are aware of their presence and are studiously avoiding them, but think there might also be wrens nesting somewhere on the barge, as they keep seeing wrens nipping about with full beaks. There are so many likely holes in what is a seriously rotten, deteriorating old wooden structure, I'd not be surprised.
