We've had some new visitors to the garden this year including a pair of grey wagtails and a pair of blackcaps.
The video is of one of the wagtails taken a couple of weeks ago. A pair of great tits have nested and are very busy zooming in and out of the bird box feeding their chicks. Other residents/visitors (in order of arrival one day) include: Goldfinches, Wood pigeons, Collared doves, Blackbirds, Starlings, Robins, Wrens, Jackdaws, Pigeons, Blue tits, House sparrows, Dunnocks, Crows, Magpies, Chaffinches, Greenfinches. They are lovely and the bird song is beautiful - but they leave so much poop! Grey Wagtail (I think) It all adds up! What are the missing numbers? ![]()
Not much coming in from poeple - I hope you're all too busy enjoying your gardens and lovely weather. So here's something uplifting from "Voices of Hope" to keep you going. ![]() For our family games/quiz night we had a preliminary challenge "take a photo of an inanimate object that looks like you". This was my effort (pretty good I thought). ... The book is Mrs Beeton's, the page - what to do with leftovers - topical n’est ce pas? I was quietly confident. I was outraged to be allocated 3 place out of 4. Disgruntled? well certainly NOT gruntled. With apologies to Richard Osman and his House of Games. One letter has been changed in each of the following song titles - what is the correct title?.

Just saw a news report about the stresses and strains of self isolation. It reported that people are going crazy from being in lockdown!
It was strange, actually, because I had just been talking about this with the microwave and toaster and all of us agreed that things are getting bad. I didn't mention anything to the washing machine as she always has to put a different spin on everything, and certainly not to the fridge as he is acting cold and distant. In the end the iron calmed me down. She said everything will be fine, which surprised me because she’s usually the first one to apply unnecessary pressure and get steamed up over nothing !!! I have spoken with the taps about your situation, they were very hot and cold on the subject, and the vacuum cleaner said it sucks. ... The curtains were closed on the subject and the carpet was just filthy. Stay sane and safe! Found this on the internet - you may have seen it already.
