works in this environment. You can make your own trials of the various fillers available locally.
Durham's Water putty works for me. Has to be mixed like plaster, but not affected by rain. A setting type drywall compound would probably work pretty well.

Crawford's painter's putty. Easy to use, lasts forever, comes in a can, dries hard and sticks well, and is all-natural to boot. Available at better building supply places everywhere.
