Water Pipit

 



A fantastic find for Simon on this mornings walk. Lots of swallows overhead and our first house martin of the year. 

Our garden is looking good

 

Lots of multi headed daffs in full glorious colour












Some summer bulbs already making a show, the dahlias yet to break cover !




Potatoes.....can't wait, they are absolutely delicious !



A large brand new raised bed for this year. Have a row of Aliums at the front, the rest is for Karen's tomatoes. Lets hope for another bumper crop again this year.




Some stunning colours in our garden. Simon works all day, every day to keep it looking fabulous !

A few bits and a red kite hunt !

 

This terrapin was hauled out sunbathing on one of our local nature reserves !


We have set ourselves a challenge to find the nearest red kites to home. We have found at least 3 kites 20 miles from home that we have seen on every visit. Afraid never close but where we have chosen to park and view has massive potential for more, closer birds. I will keep you posted but we are well pleased with our find.
