Woodlark
Very cryptic birds in a cryptic landscape, they just blend in ! Lucky we have these on our doorstep.
A few from Bempton Cliffs
A daytime hunting barn owl that was straight into the sun
Pair of fulmars
Gannets, busy collecting and sorting themselves, one was rung
Guillemots
A peregrine hunting the cliffs
and the must see bird, the puffin xx

Common Terns and Marsh Harriers
Our local common terns are back, very vocal !
and a couple of Marsh Harriers at Blacktoft
A few from last week
Lots of Blackcaps now, singing away
Cowslips still looking spectacular on the bankings
Marsh Violet, just a couple of flowers this year
Roe Deer, just stepping over the fence with no effort needed
Our greenhouse, absolutely stuffed to the gills at the moment. Soon all the fuchsias will be planted out making way for chillis, peppers and cucumbers
Pixi has her own shelf in the greenhouse ! She loves it xx
Potatoes.....they have now tripled in size since this pic !
Simon picking up a couple of birthday balloons......infuriating !
Stove still being lit in the evenings
Sweet Peas, now planted out and staked. Love the flowers and they smell divine x
