We have moved the ducks (all except for the one sitting upstairs on a nest in the old duck house) back to their first home near the kitchen door.  What a delight to see them out and about in the garden, swimming in their outdoor bath and lying out in the sunshine.

The tits have returned to nest in the box under the pergola and their nestlings demand non stop food.  The parents fly in and out all day long with worms and insects in their beaks, tirelessly feeding their young.
