The Clarkson's Farm host took to Instagram to share the news from Diddly Squat
Jeremy Clarkson and girlfriend Lisa Hogan have taken to Diddly Squat's official Instagram page to show the effects this week's weather has had on the farm.
Based near Chipping Norton, Oxfordshire, Diddly Squat has found itself victim of rather blustery and cloudy conditions over the past few days.
And while the weather plays a pivotal role in keeping the farm running and crops growing, as Clarkson demonstrated in the first season of his hit farming show, it can also prove a hinderance to other aspects.
In their latest update, Clarkson looked downbeat as he revealed the wind that has battered Diddly Squat recently has taken a toll on the wildlife on the farm.
Clutching a bird's nest, Hogan could be heard from behind the camera as she asked her other half for an update.
"What happened?" Hogan asked off-camera as The Grand Tour presenter looked bemused and answered: "I don't know."

Offering up a possible explanation, Clarkson pointed the finger at the weather and mused: "Wind we had last... couple of days ago.
"All that effort," Clarkson added as he examined the intricately crafted and now destroyed nest in his hand.
"Look at that, beautiful," Hogan remarked as she moved the camera closer.
Clarkson didn't reveal whether or not any birds were harmed along with the nest being damaged.
However, many of Diddly Squat's followers were quick to offer possible explanations and point out it doesn't necessarily mean any birds would've fallen into harm's way.
One fan replied: "It'll be ok they sometimes have more than one nest birdies are very intelligent ! Unlike humans....."
While a second added: "This often happens when the chicks have fledged.
"Then the wind blows the nest from the tree. I've found many while walking in the woods. They are small works of arts."

Another also had similar thoughts: "Let’s hope they had all fledged in time."
And a fourth poked fun at Clarkson's own battles with the local council as documented in the Amazon series as they quipped: "Your local council told them to knock it down, no planning permission."
Clarkson will be back for a third season of Clarkson's Farm alongside Hogan and fellow regulars Kaleb Cooper, Charlie Ireland and the rest of the Diddly Squat Family.
However, a release date for the third run remains under wraps for now, with Clarkson confirming last month filming will still be taking place until at least October this year.
